NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Monday issued notices to the centre and the telecom ministry on petitions seeking cancellation of 2G spectrum allocation during the tenure of former telecom minister A Raja.
The apex court also wondered how telecom minister Kapil Sabil could doubt the CAG finding when on that very basis the CVC had asked the CBI to register a case in the 2G scam.
The apex court is hearing two petitions seeking cancellation of all the licenses of 2G spectrum issued by former communications minister A Raja.
Janata Party president Subramaniam Swamy and advocate Prashant Bhushan have moved court to cancel all the 122 licenses.
The court had last week upheld the plea of Swamy.
Kapil Sibal had questioned the figure of Rs 1.76 lakh crore arrived at by the CAG in calculating the losses in 2G spectrum allocation.
The CAG report had made a severe indictment of A Raja for flouting rules in the allocation of 2G spectrum.
