“Personally we have not taken any decision on the notices of Supreme Court. Once we receive them, we will collectively respond on them,” she said. The Chief Minister has advised the ministers to respond on the issue only after receipt of the notices from the Supreme Court, she said.

Minister for Roads and Buildings Dharmana Prasad Rao said that the ministers would give replies on behalf of the government once they receive the notices. He rubbished the opposition's demand for resignation of Ministers from their posts as the probe has been going on in the issue. “There is no point in opposition demanding resignation at this juncture as the probe is still on,” he said.
