The Telangana High Court has issued a directive to the state government, prohibiting any adverse action against former Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao and ex-minister T Harish Rao until October 7.

Despite the report's findings, both Rao and Harish Rao have legally challenged its conclusions, pressing for its annulment amidst a pending CBI inquiry, which aims to probe deeper into the project's construction controversies.
