New Delhi, Feb 7 (IBNS): A Special Court on Tuesday granted bail to ex-Coal Secretary HC Gupta and others in a case concerning alleged irregularities in the allocation of a coal block in Chhattisgarh, according to media reports.

The CBI in its charge-sheet had claimed that the accused persons and SKS Ispat and Power Ltd (SIPL) had misrepresented facts about the land and the company's net worth before the Screening Committee to get the mining contract for the Fatehpur Coal Block in Chhattisgarh, media reported.

CBI had registered the case in 2014.

The Special Court will take up the matter on Mar 23.
