Supreme Court declines to receive government plea on ‘administrative allocation’ of spectrum

Spectrum, a scarce natural resource, is allocated to private players only through open, transparent auction. The law was laid down on this issue by the Supreme Court 12 years ago in the 2G spectrum judgment.
