BRS MLCs suspended from Council for the sessions
Assembly resolution asks KCR to take responsibility for the derogatory remarks of its MLCs
Two BRS MLCs, Tata Madhu and Naveen Kumar Reddy, were arrested by police in the morning and subsequently suspended from the Legislative Council for the rest of the session due to derogatory comments they allegedly made about Assembly Speaker Gaddam Prasad Kumar. The suspension was moved by Legislative Affairs Minister D. Sridhar Babu and unanimously adopted by the House.
The Chairman of the Legislative Council, Gutha Sukender Reddy, announced the suspension and adjourned the session. Other BRS MLCs protested outside the House, raising slogans against Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy. Earlier, Health Minister Damodar Rajnarismha had moved a similar resolution, which was seconded by Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka.
Speaker Gaddam Prasad Kumar was not present during the proceedings, but protec Speaker Kadiyam Srihari chaired the session. The resolution demanded that Leader of the Opposition K. Chandrashekhar Rao apologize unconditionally for the unbecoming conduct of his party members and maintain the dignity and authority of the Presiding Officer.
