The Supreme Court Friday said that it will hear a PIL March 28 seeking directions to the government to expeditiously make available to defence sources equipments and spares as and when sought by them.

The apex court bench headed by Chief Justice P. Sathasivam said that it will hear the plea March 28 after one of the two PIL petitioners advocate N. Rajaraman mentioned the matter before the court.

The PIL is rooted in the recent submarine incident INS Sindhuratna in which the lives of two young navy officers was lost.
