2G Case Supreme Court cancels all 122 licences – Latest News

In a major development having implications for the corporate sector, the Supreme Court today cancelled
the 122 2G spectrum licences granted by former telecom minister A Raja on the ground that they were
issued in a "totally arbitrary and unconstitutional" manner.

Bringing the curtains down on the controversial allocation by Mr. Raja in 2008, the court strongly
indicted him over the manner in which he manipulated the issue of licences and ordered that the
licences in 22 circles be sold by auction for which the TRAI will make fresh recommendations.

A two-judge bench comprising justices G.S. Singhvi and A.K. Ganguly allowed the impugned licences to
run for four months after which the cancellation order will become operative.
