The Supreme Court on Wednesday closed a criminal case against former prime minister Manmohan Singh in a coal block allocation case while setting aside a summoning order passed against him.
A bench comprising Chief Justice Surya Kant and justices Joymalya Bagchi and V Mohana accepted the CBI’s closure report giving a clean chit to the former PM and others.
Singh, who died in December 2024, now stands formally exonerated in one of the United Progressive Alliance government’s most high-profile criminal cases.
