New Delhi: The Supreme Court will pass an order on the appointment of a special public prosecutor for holding the trial of former telecom minister A Raja and others in the 2G spectrum allocation case. A bench of justices G S Singhvi and A K Ganguly will also pass direction for holding the trial in the case on day-to-day basis without any adjournments to bring to justice all persons involved in the scam in which high profile politicians, top corporate honchos, bureaucrats and telecom firms have come under scrutiny. Brushing aside the Centre's objections, the apex court had on April 8 said it would pass an order for the appointment of senior advocate U U Lalit as special public prosecutor.
