The clause (requiring company and directors of radio channel to be security cleared) is vague. It can be misused.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Nobody knows what you mean by security clearance&#8230;In a democracy, you have to move towards greater transparency and not secrecy,&#8221; the bench had said to the government after it had contended it is not required to inform the company about the criteria of security clearance.<\/p>\n<p>Digital Radio&#8217;s application to participate in the auction was rejected as it was not given security clearance by the Union Home Ministry on the ground that Kalanithi Maran, a shareholder in the radio channel, was facing prosecution in a money laundering case, as per their plea.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Delhi High Court today sought the Centre&#8217;s response on a plea by Digital Radio Broadcasting Ltd, which runs Red FM, against the government&#8217;s decision denying it permission to participate in the third phase of FM auction.
