Supreme Court agrees to hear plea seeking review of Rafale
Former Union ministers Yashwant Sinha and Arun Shourie and senior advocate Prashant Bhushan moved the Supreme Court, seeking review of its December 14 judgment on the Rafale fighter jet deal.
The Supreme Court on Thursday agreed to hear a plea seeking review of its verdict in the Rafale case.
Former Union ministers Yashwant Sinha and Arun Shourie and senior advocate Prashant Bhushan had earlier moved the apex court, seeking review of its December 14 judgment on the Rafale fighter jet deal.
The petitioners alleged that the court relied upon “incorrect claims” made by the Centre.
When Prashant Bhushan requested the bench led by the Chief Justice of India (CJI) to hear the petition on Rafale Deal, Ranjan Gogoi said, “Will do something for the listing of the case as a bench is to be constituted for it.”
The bench of CJI Gogoi, Justices SK Kaul and K M Joseph had earlier dismissed all four petitions seeking a court-monitored probe, saying it found “no occasion to really doubt the process” of decision making, pricing and selection of offset partners.
