Senior Samajwadi Party leader Ramgopal Yadav on Wednesday said the court's decision to issue summons to former prime minister Manmohan Singh in connection with the coal blocks allocation scam was not correct.
"The step taken the court is not correct. I disagree with the court's decision to issue summons (to him). If anybody sitting on a top level takes any decision it does mean that there is his involvement in it," he told the media here.
Earlier in the day, a special CBI court summoned former prime minister Manmohan Singh, former coal secretary P C Parakh, Aditya Birla Group chairman K M Birla and three others in connection with the coal blocks allocation scam.
The court has summoned them on April 8 for offences of criminal conspiracy, breach of trust and under provisions of prevention of corruption act.
