Any deviation at lower level will be dealt with: Raja

Telecom Minister A Raja today said any deviation by lower-rung officers from the government’s policy decision on spectrum allocation would be dealt with. - Differences between DoT, MoD over spectrum continue to persist - "No deviation from rules in awarding telecom licences" - Speed up 3G - Indian Bank net up 32% - Sunil Jain: Can Manmohan ditch Raja?">Sunil Jain: Can Manmohan ditch Raja? - Raja fixes timelines for 3G auction “I have made it clear, any deviation in the lower level, after the policy decision was taken by the government, to show favouritism to a specific company by a lower officer, will be dealt with,” he told reporters here on the sidelines of a function. “I was very categorical from the beginning and I want to reiterate it now,” he said. Raja faces allegations by the Opposition that there are irregularities in allocation of 2G spectrum. Last week, CBI searched offices of the Department of Telecommunications and many new private telecom players, who were given spectrum last year in connection with charges made against the telecom minister. Raja said spectrum was alloted as per the recommendations made by industry regulator Trai and after consultation with Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
