2G spectrum scam: Dayanidhi meets Moily

New Delhi, Jun 18: Union Minister Dayanidhi Maran, facing heat over spectrum allocation during his tenure as Telecom Minister, on Friday, June 17 met Law Minister M Veerappa Moily.

Maran reached Moily's office this evening and was with his Cabinet colleague for a little over 10 minutes.

CBI, probing the 2G scam, has already indicated that it could question Maran in the next few weeks before registering a fresh case in spectrum allocation during 2001-07.

Former Aircel Chief C Sivasankaran is understood to have alleged that Maran had coerced him into selling his firm to a Malaysia-based businessman.

BJP has demanded the resignation of Maran over allegations of a quid quo pro in allocating spectrum to Aircel.
