New Delhi: The government Tuesday described as “baseless” the allegation that Law and Justice Minister Salman Khurshid’s opinion on a service provider facing trial in the 2G case amounted to giving it a clean chit and weakened the prosecution case against it.
“The applicants’ plea that interference of an influential minister is evident, is baseless,” said an affidavit filed by Ram Meena, director, department of telecommunications.
He said the proceedings before the apex court which started as public interest litigation were turning out to be a political interest litigation.
