The Democratic Front government of Congress and NCP combine rejected the probe report after tabling it before the state assembly on the last day of the winter session of state legislature on 20 December, causing a furore.

‘We have a clear idea in our mind of what happened (referring to the Adarsh scam). Based on that we submitted our report after recording the evidence of several witnesses and perusing relevant documents. The findings were not palatable to the government and hence it must have been rejected,’ Patil said.

The report names former Congress chief ministers, Ashok Chavan, Sushilkumar Shinde and late Vilasrao Deshmukh. It also indicted Shivajirao Nilangekar Patil, who served as Revenue Minister when the building received clearances. Patil had also served as chief minister in the 1980s.
