Following the resignation of Justice L Narasimha Reddy, who was heading the one-man Commission of Inquiry, the State government decided to appoint Justice Lokur on Monday.
BRS leader Manne Krishank condemned the remarks of Justice (Retd) L Narasimha Reddy against former Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao and MLC K Kavitha. He termed them inappropriate and disrespectful.
An SC bench hearing a plea filed by former CM KCR asked the Telangana Govt to suggest a substitute name in place of the present head of the commission probing alleged irregularities in power procurement during the BRS regime.
BRS legislator G Jagadish Reddy said Justice Narasimha Reddy's remarks during a recent press conference appeared to be in favour of the Congress government's arguments.
The panel informed that it had finalised the Terms of Reference of the inquiry for inviting public views of the persons and organisations in connection with the matter under the probe.
