Delhi High Court has allowed Red FM to participate in Phase III of FM Radio auction. The High Court also quashed Govt's decision denying security clearance to Red FM and rejected their application to participate in the Auction.<br/><br/>The court decided to deliver the order today because the e-auctions that are scheduled to start at 9.30 AM tomorrow cannot be deferred and the software used for it has to be configured at least 12 hours before the auctions start. <br/><br/>The court heard the petition filed by Digital Radio (Delhi) Broadcasting Ltd. and Digital Radio (Mumbai) Broadcasting Ltd, challenging the Information and Broadcasting Ministry's move to bar them from the auctions. <br/><br/>Union Home Ministry in June denied a security clearance to 33 television channels run by Sun TV Network on grounds that their continued airing would have an adverse impact on the economic security of the country because of a pending probe against the company's promoters by the CBI and the Enforcement Directorate.
