A court summoned former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Wednesday over accusations of criminal conspiracy and corruption in the illegal award of a coal field, a blow for the Gandhi dynasty that ruled India until last year.

The Supreme Court gave relief to former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Wednesday as it stayed a trial court order summoning him as an accused in a coal scam case and also restrained the special CBI judge from proceeding with the matter.
