Overview
- A division bench refused interim orders on petitions by K. Chandrashekar Rao and T. Harish Rao seeking to quash the P.C. Ghose Commission report on Kaleshwaram.
- The Advocate General submitted that the state will act on the findings only after the report is debated on the floor of the Assembly, which the court formally noted.
- The bench directed the government to remove the report or its 60‑page summary from official websites if uploaded, calling publication before legislative discussion improper.
- The court declined to stay tabling of the report in the Assembly, sought detailed counter‑affidavits within four weeks, and adjourned the matter for roughly five weeks.
- Petitioners allege violations of Sections 8B and 8C and denial of cross‑examination, while the commission held them directly and vicariously accountable and the Cabinet relied on an executive summary to accept the report for debate.
