The Andhra Pradesh fiasco: Who resigned, and when?

Sabitha Indra Reddy threatens to resign
The resignation drama of two charge-sheeted Ministers in
Andhra Pradesh has not just set off a flurry of political
activity in the State, but has also set off a flurry of
news activity on �national� media. However, in a tearing
hurry to come up with a 5-10 minutes slot, most of them
presented poorly researched news bits on this issue
(which includes trying to credit the high-command for
resignations).
The following timeline explains why it is entirely wrong
to credit the high-command, how the �collective
responsibility� of the Cabinet has been abused, and how
the State is the ultimate sufferer in this fiasco under
the leadership of Sonia Gandhi�s Congress.
March � May, 2012
The Supreme Court of India has issued notices to six
Ministers and eight IAS officers in Andhra Pradesh,
asking them to explain why they should not be
interrogated by the CBI in GO�s issued by them, that
purportedly favoured Jagan. The details of these 26 GO�s
are appended at the end of this article.
The names of the six Ministers are Sabitha Indra Reddy,
Geetha Reddy, Dharmana Prasada Rao, Ponnala Lakshmaih,
Kanna Lakshminarayana and Mopidevi Venkataramana.
The State Government agreed to provide legal assistance
to all these six Ministers and eight IAS officers,
primarily because it believed no wrongdoing was resorted
to by the Ministers.
Venkataramana meanwhile got ensconced into a excise scam
too and had resigned. Immediately after that, the CBI
arrested him in the Jagan disproportionate assets case.
In his resignation letter, the Minister clearly mentioned
that he merely followed the orders of the then Congress
CM, YSR. Many Ministerial colleagues echoed the same
sentiment directly on TV.
May � August 2012
The CBI continued it�s investigations, and in August
filed another set of charge-sheets. In this, it named
Dharmana Prasada Rao as an accused. Since he was charge-
sheeted, Dharmana Prasada Rao submitted his resignation
to the Chief Minister. The CBI also applied for
permission from the CM to allow for prosecution of
Prasada Rao. Please note that Prasada Rao submitted his
resignation in August 2012.
