Overview

• Chief Justice Aparesh Kumar Singh and Justice G. M. Mohiuddin directed the Advocate General to return on Friday with instructions on the government’s position.
• Former chief minister K. Chandrashekar Rao and ex‑minister T. Harish Rao have petitioned to quash the Justice P. C. Ghose Commission report, alleging procedural violations and denial of a fair chance to defend themselves.
• Petitioners say they received only witness summons under Section 5(2), not mandatory notices under Sections 8B/8C, and that a 60‑page summary was publicized while the full report was withheld from them.
• The state says the Cabinet approved the report based on the summary and plans to place it before the Assembly, while the Commission and the state argue that required notices were issued and that the findings are recommendatory.
• The Ghose Commission concluded that KCR and Harish Rao were directly and vicariously accountable for irregularities in the Kaleshwaram project, a finding the court is now asked to examine before any government action proceeds.
