“We are unable to find any reasonable rationale behind this sudden pause in a successful and fruitful policy of auctioning all available spectrum every year, since the Hon’ble Supreme Court decision in 2012,” Reliance Jio said in the letter.
Spectrum auctions were held every year after the apex court order in the 2G case in 2012 and the last was held in the year 2016.
