SC refuses to accept govt application on 2012 2G spectrum allocation

The Supreme Court registrar has refused to accept a government application for “clarification” of its 2012 judgment on the allotment of 2G spectrum.

“This application has been filed to seek appropriate clarifications from this Honourable Court regarding the Centre for Public Interest Litigation judgment, to establish a spectrum assignment framework that includes methods of assignment other than auction in suitable cases, to best serve the common good,” said the government’s application filed on December 12 last year. It was mentioned in the court last week and was likely to come up for hearing this week.
