Cut-off date changed to favour Unitech: CBI

Former telecom minister A Raja was on Tuesday grilled by the CBI before a Delhi court with the agency alleging that the decision to advance cut-off date for accepting the applications for grant of 2G spectrum licences was taken to ‘favour’ Unitech, a charge refuted by him. ‘It is incorrect,’ Raja told Special CBI Judge OP Saini after special public prosecutor UU Lalit questioned him that ‘this decision (to change cut-off date) of yours was taken to favour Unitech applications in particular.’
