New Delhi: The controversial multi-crore Rupees Jet-Etihad Airways deal today reached the Supreme Court with senior BJP leader Subramanian Swamy filing a petition seeking to quash the approval given to it by the Centre.
In a voluminous petition, Swamy also sought a CBI probe against the government officials who had cleared the deal.
"Issue a direction to set aside and revoke any action or decision or grant of any further approvals/permissions/ permits, etc. by the respondent(govt) authorities, based upon, relying upon or in furtherance of the impugned bilateral dated April 24," the petition said.
"The petitioner challenges such arbitrary, irrational and malafide act of grant of largesse in the form of bilateral/ MoU dated April 24 and by way of the present petition seeks an investigation under the supervision of this Court into the matters of national and public interest," he said in his petition.
