April 08, 2016
New Delhi
The Supreme Court today dismissed a PIL filed by an NGO challenging grant of 4G licences to Mukesh Ambani’s Reliance Jio Infocomm Ltd (RJIL).
A bench headed by Chief Justice T S Thakur junked the petition of NGO, Centre for Public Interest Litigation (CPIL) filed in 2014 through advocate Prashant Bhushan, which challenged the government’s decision to allow the company to offer voice services on its 4G spectrum.
The apex court, however, asked the government to look into the issue of spectrum usage charge (SUC) but did not pass any order on this.
