In its petition, the ministry has stated that an executive of JSPL was on March 27 found recording the court proceedings on his mobile phone which was “an abuse of the process of justice”. It has sought a thorough investigation into the matter.
“This petitioner (JSPL) has filed various other petitions in relation to auction of coal mines, and it is likely such an event transpired earlier,” said the application.
