71 special CBI courts were sanctioned by the Centre across teh country to deal speccially with graft cases.

The Supreme Court suggested that could explain the lack of action. "The majority of cases taken up by special courts involves cases of public servants. The Prime Minister's letter is thrown into teh dustbin. It is an unfortunate scenario that only under the threat of contempt, they (states) take decisions", said a two judge bench hearing the case.
They added that it is the duty of Chief Secretaries in states to take administrative decisions but they do not take decisions on such important issues.
