Mopa Airport: SC refuses to set up bench to hear Goa Govt's plea for construction to resume

New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Wednesday refused to set up a special bench to urgently hear the pending petition of  the Goa Government seeking resumption of construction of a greenfield  airport at Mopa in the State.
A bench headed by Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi was told by Attorney General K K Venugopal, appearing for the State Government, that the  construction of the airport has been stalled for the last ten months  and the petition of the State Government is pending before the apex court.
“We are not in a position to constitute a special bench now. Mr  attorney, our present
situation does not permit us to do this,” the  bench, which also comprised justices S A Bobde and S A Nazeer, said.
