Telecom Minister A Raja has been served a “gag order” against the backdrop of the 2G spectrum controversy. According to top sources in the UPA government, Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee recently summoned Raja and told him not to speak to the press about the 3G auction. He has also been strongly advised to ensure that intra-ministerial communications and letters don’t reach the press through his office. Recently, Raja’s letter to Mukherjee, seeking his intervention for getting the defence ministry to vacate 3G spectrum, was leaked to the press. Mukherjee was extremely upset at this.
