2G spectrum scam judgment: Congress shouldn't treat verdict as 'badge of honour', says Arun Jaitley

New Delhi: Finance minister Arun Jaitley said the Congress should not treat the 2G verdict as a “badge of honour”. The party’s “zero loss theory” was proved to be wrong when the apex court squashed spectrum allocation in 2012, the minister said after a special court acquitted all accused in the 2G spectrum scam allocation case.

Former telecom minister A Raja and DMK leader Kanimozhi were acquitted on Thursday by a special court in the 2G spectrum scam case. All other accused and three companies were also acquitted in the case.   Click here for LIVE updates.
