Overview
- The one‑man commission led by former Supreme Court judge P.C. Ghose submitted its findings on July 31 and the full report was tabled in the Assembly on August 31.
- The report holds former Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao directly and vicariously accountable and names T. Harish Rao, Eatala Rajender, senior bureaucrats and engineers for procedural, technical and financial lapses.
- The panel recommends legal action, recovery measures and contractor liability, citing L&T, Afcons and Navayuga for defect rectification and seeking recovery of Rs 677.67 lakh paid to WAPCOS.
- The government said it will outline follow‑up actions after the House discussion, while BRS leaders label the inquiry politically motivated.
- Petitions by KCR and Harish Rao to quash the commission are pending in the Telangana High Court without interim relief, as debate focuses on alleged construction defects at Medigadda and cost escalations to about ₹1.10 lakh crore with ₹87,449 crore in off‑budget borrowings.
