On Friday, the attorney general submitted its opinion to the EGoM. The issue of one-time spectrum fee had been referred to the eGoM in July. But it was deferred till the outcome of the Presidential reference. Following the Supreme Court's opinion on the Presidential Reference, the government is now free to take a decision in this regard.
