Overview
- The Division Bench refused to pass interim orders or stay tabling of the P.C. Ghose Commission report in the Legislative Assembly.
- The court directed the government to remove the report or its summary from official websites, terming publication before legislative discussion improper.
- State authorities were told to file detailed counter-affidavits, and the matter has been adjourned for about five weeks for further hearing.
- Advocate General A. Sudarshan Reddy submitted that no action will be taken on the report’s findings until it is placed before and debated in the Assembly, which the court recorded.
- Former chief minister K. Chandrashekar Rao and ex-minister T. Harish Rao argue the inquiry violated Sections 8B and 8C and caused reputational harm through a 60‑page summary released to the media.
