Comprehensive Article:In a surprise twist to Telangana’s high-profile Formula E race saga, the state’s governor Jishnu Dev Varma has finally given the green light for the Anti-Corruption Bureau to prosecute and question former minister and Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) leader K T Rama Rao, known as KTR. The decision closes a long chapter of waiting after the state government sought permission to go after KTR, citing evidence of his involvement in alleged misappropriation of a whopping Rs 54.88 crore meant for Hyderabad’s 2023 Formula E electric car race. Officials confirmed that the ACB is soon expected to file charges following custodial questioning, which KTR has already faced multiple times. The push for prosecution had previously stalled, with Telangana’s chief minister complaining about the governor’s slow pace, noting that, without approval, any arrest of KTR would be pointless since he’d get bail immediately. With the governor’s nod finally given, legal barriers are removed, and the case is set to heat up, stirring up excitement and speculation among young people across the state, many of whom followed the Formula E spectacle closely and now want answers about where the money went.
