A special CBI court had summoned the former Prime Minister and five others in a case involving the 2005 allocation of Odisha's Talabira coal blocks to Hindalco. On March 12, 2015 a special CBI court had summoned Dr. Singh, along with five others including industrialist Kumar Mangalam Birla and the former coal secretary P.C. Parakh in a case involving the allocation of Odisha's Talabira coal blocks in 2005 to Hindalco, a Birla group company.
They have to appear before the Special CBI judge on April 8, 2015 for alleged offences punishable under Sections 120B (criminal conspiracy) and 409 (criminal breach of trust by public servant, or by banker, merchant or agent) of the IPC and under the provisions of the Prevention of Corruption Act (PCA). Manmohan Singh has been summoned despite the CBI filing a closure report and telling the court that there was no prosecutable evidence against him.
