The Supreme Court has appointed former Additional Solicitor General Maninder Singh and advocate Rajesh Batra as special public prosecutors (SPPs) for trial of multi-crore coal scam cases filed by Enforcement Directorate.
The order was passed by the Court after Senior advocate R S Cheema, who was appointed SPP in 2014 by the top court, sought permission to be relieved of the responsibility citing his age and shortage of law officers assisting him.
The Central Government proposed the names of former ASG Maninder Singh and Rajesh Batra.
