HYDERABAD: The state cabinet meeting scheduled for Monday will deliberate on the information to be provided to the PC Ghose Commission , which has requested details of cabinet approvals by the previous govt for the Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Scheme (KLIS).
The commission, currently investigating the sinking of piers at Medigadda and the damage to the Annaram and Sundilla barrages under KLIS, has cross-examined former chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao and former ministers T Harish Rao and Eatala Rajender. Following their depositions, the commission is understood to have written to the govt seeking further details.
KCR , Harish Rao, and Eatala reportedly informed the commission that the project was undertaken with cabinet approval. However, Agriculture minister Tummala Nageswara Rao , who served during the first term of the previous BRS govt, claimed that many decisions were made solely by KCR.
"The chief minister's office has responded to the Ghose Commission stating that the requested information will be submitted by June 30. The matter will be discussed at the cabinet meeting on June 23," sources in the CMO said.
Chief minister A Revanth Reddy has already stated that the cabinet will also consider the advantages and disadvantages of initiating discussions with Andhra Pradesh CM N Chandrababu Naidu to find an amicable resolution to the inter-state river water sharing issue, including the contentious Banakacharla project, between the two Telugu-speaking states.
"The chief minister and ministers are also expected to discuss the panchayat elections, the law department's report regarding the submission of material to the court on fixing reservations in local bodies, implementation of the Rythu Bharosa scheme , the Indiramma housing scheme, and other key issues," sources added.
