Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court allowed the Union of India's application for correction of a judgment regarding the procurement of 36 Rafale fighter jets, specifically addressing a misinterpretation in paragraph 25. The Court clarified that the pricing details had been shared with the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) and that the report was examined by the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) in the usual course of business. The correction was made to ensure accurate representation of the facts without altering the rationale of the original judgment.
