Today was the last day of the apex court deadline.
The court had asked the Chief Vigilance Commissioner and two Vigilance Commissioners to give their suggestions whether the cases can be closed or CBI can go ahead with the filing of charge sheets in them.
DIG Ravi Kant Sharma, who supervises the coal scam probe along with other two officers of the same rank, had told the bench that he had given opinion for filing charge sheets in two cases in which the agency has filed closure reports on Thursday.
CBI Director Ranjit Sinha had welcomed the decision of the Supreme Court and had said the agency had done its job diligently and “we are open to whatever suggestions are made by CVC to the Supreme Court.”
