A Bench comprising Chief Justice A P Shah and Justice S Muralidhar issued notice to the government and fixed the matter for further hearing on December 10.
The petition filed by an NGO, Telecom Watchdog, contended that the government allotted the spectrum without following any policy and cellular operators were provided excess spectrum without charging them for the scarce resource since 2001.
"The government should withdraw the excess spectrum from the operators by applying the tougher of the two spectrum allocation norms suggested by TRAI and TEC," contended advocate Prashant Bhushan, appearing for the NGO.
The court, however, refrained from issuing notice to cellular companies.

This seems to biggest scam. Company having no Telecom Operations, employees had given licences and spectrum. Was our PM sleeping when his minister was doing this?Shame on UPA government.. Raja is still minister..
Raja shame on you come clean dont try to put the blame on others the loot has been shared by all involved now dont try to act innocent we all know your background?? It is the D.M.K party that invented corruption in INDIA PEOPLE ARE NOT FOOLS TO BELIEVE YOU AND YOUR PARTY..SHAME SHAME
Raja should be arrested immediately and subjected to lie detector test as this seemsto be one of the biggest scam involving more than Rs. 60000 Crores. But ourgutless government and opposition would sight tight on this issue and let thepublic forget it till some other scam takes place
Non technical, Non ethical ministers come to wheel the critical responsibilities. It is sad in democracy that even illiterates can become ministers of education and criminals can be come security ministers. Do we deserve democarcy ??
where is our country going?nobody knows what is happening in spectrum case .laws and punishments only for people .these politicians looting moneyand daily say some stories.if any govt official get bribe means police files immediately FIR and treats them like a criminal .what CBI is doing.CBI should take this case and expain to the people what is happening
he should resign as soon as possible.This PIL (By Whom/NGO) has done a remarkable job and its opened the pandara box. Prima facie it seems nexus b/w poltician and corporate houses, how they are melting money on the expence of indian citizen money. Good job done by telecom watch dog. Keep it up.
As like kids do in the school says that as he talks, I spoke..inorder to escape from punishment, they show hands on others.. So both of them are fault.. Inorder to escape, Raja says on discussion with PM and TRAI, he did that..So fault is on all of them.. So give notice to individual also..One more scam similar to Bofors.. Come on court.
Where is our Honourable Minister Mr Raja not to be heard????????????? is he still the Minister is he in our country ????????????
