Delhi Court Discharges Hindalco and Former Executives in Talabira-I Coal Block CasePreviousNext

A Delhi court discharged Hindalco Industries and two former executives in a coal block case related to the Talabira-I block in Odisha. The court found no evidence of illegal acts or criminal conspiracy, stating the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) failed to prove criminal breach of trust or cheating. It noted that the initial allocation letter did not grant vested rights and rejected the CBI's claim that it constituted a binding contract for exclusive coal use.
