Digital Desk: The Supreme Court on Monday refused to hear a petition seeking a fresh investigation into the deal between India and France to purchase 36 Rafale fighter jets.
A bench comprising of Chief Justice Uday Umesh Lalit and S Ravindra Bhat examined lawyer M L Sharma's request that a directive be issued to collect new evidence relevant to the agreement. He also made reference to various media allegations that claimed Dassault Aviation paid a middleman one billion euros to influence the deal in its favour.
The bench refused to hear the new PIL. Sharma then made the decision to drop the PIL.
On December 14, 2018, the Supreme Court dismissed a number of PILs contesting the agreement between India and France to buy 36 Rafale jets, stating that there was no reason to "seriously dispute the decision-making process" that would have called for the contract to be annulled.
