Maharashtra government has rejected the report of the judicial commission of inquiry on the Adarsh scam.

The report was tabled in the Legislative Assembly today which indicted several politicians including former Chief Ministers for violations of statutory provisions.

Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan said the decision on rejection of the findings of the inquiry commission was taken by the Cabinet in the interest of the people.

The report of the two member commission headed by retired high court judge J A Patil came down heavily on those in authority describing the scam as a bad precedent.

The panel found 25 of the society's 102 members ineligible and 22 cases of benami purchase of flats.

The report said Adarsh society enjoyed political patronage of several political leaders and the beneficiaries included politicians across the spectrum and their relatives.

The report, which was submitted to the state government on April 18 this year was tabled in the House on the last day of the Winter Session on Friday.

Meanwhile, BJP on Friday hit out at the Maharashtra Cabinet for trying to bury the truth in the Adarsh Housing scam and targeted Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan.

Leader of the Opposition in Rajya Sabha Arun Jaitley said this on a Twitter post.

Jaitley's comment came after the Cabinet of the Congress-NCP government in Maharashtra rejected the report of a judicial commission.
