Former Minister K.T. Rama Rao and IAS Officer Arvind Kumar could face prosecution sanctions as the ACB has submitted a report to the Telangana Government claiming the case against them is genuine.

Earlier this week, the Telangana Chief Minister directed the state's Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) to investigate the Formula E scandal involving former Minister K.T. Rama Rao and IAS Officer Arvind Kumar. Now it appears the bureau has submitted its findings, and it's not looking good for the former minister and administration head. The ACB has reportedly told the government that its case against Rama Rao and Kumar is genuine and deserves prosecution sanctions.

The news comes on the heels of the CM's orders to the ACB to file a report on the case's status by the end of the month. With the ACB submitting the report, the government will now decide the next steps in the case. While the investigation itself is ongoing, if the government determines the case has merit, it could lead to further legal proceedings for Rama Rao and Kumar.

The development is one of the biggest corruption scandals to rock the Telangana politics in recent years and involves sizable financial irregularities. The case centers around alleged misappropriation of funds granted by the Centre for hosting last year's Formula E race. Notably, the event incurred a loss of 217 crore to the exchequer, sources say.

It remains to be seen how the government will respond to the report's findings and what impact this could have on the careers and reputations of Rama Rao and Kumar.
