KCR to appear before Ghose panel today
Hyderabad: In a major development in the ongoing investigation into the Kaleswaram Lift Irrigation Project, former chief minister and BRS president K Chandrasekhar Rao is scheduled to appear before the Justice PC Ghose Commission on Wednesday.
Ahead of his deposition, KCR held a crucial meeting on Tuesday with former irrigation minister T Harish Rao at his Erravalli farmhouse.
According to sources, Harish Rao—who appeared before the commission on June 9—engaged in a five-hour discussion with KCR on Monday to brief him on the commission's inquiries and to strategise appropriate responses. The two leaders met again on Tuesday to further deliberate on key issues expected to be raised during the hearing, fine-tune their replies, and chart both legal and political strategies.
Reports suggest that the discussions also included a review of alleged deficiencies flagged in the vigilance and National Dam Safety Authority (NDSA) reports related to the project's key barrages—Medigadda, Annaram, and Sundilla.
The meeting has assumed considerable political significance, especially with former minister Vemula Prashanth Reddy also attending. His presence has further fuelled speculation around the BRS's internal deliberations ahead of KCR's testimony.
