The Maharashtra government had, on December 20, rejected the Commission's report on the Adarsh scam, tabled in the State Legislative Assembly.
However, after Rahul Gandhi's intervention the government this month decided to partially implement the panel's recommendations, which the Opposition has alleged, favours politicians while putting the onus only on bureaucrats.
The report of the two-member Commission headed by retired High Court judge J A Patil indicted several politicians including four former Chief Ministers- Ashok Chavan, late Vilasrao Deshmukh, Sushilkumar Shinde and Shivajirao Nilangekar Patil- for “blatant violations” of statutory provisions.
