The audit of the grant of telecom licences and allocation of 2G and 3G spectrum by the Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG) has taken an interesting turn, with the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) asking CAG to directly communicate with the CBI, as the required documents have already been seized by the investigation agency.
“Files relating to the grant of unified access service licences (UASLs) are under the custody of CBI. So, it would be appropriate if the office of Director General of Audit, Posts and Telecommunications, obtain copies of the seized documents directly from the CBI,” DoT said in a communication.
