CM Revanth Reddy Slams BRS

Earlier, Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy criticised BRS for allegedly obstructing the Assembly session, alleging that the opposition conspired to stall the session, fearing their misdeeds would come to light during the debates on the land issues. During the debate on 22 A prohibited list in the Assembly, the CM accused the BRS of creating pandemonium in the house, fearing that issues such as the plundering of government lands, fee reimbursement, the drought situation, and the occult rituals performed by some individuals would come up for debate.

BRS MLAs Accused of Disrupting House

CM Revanth Reddy took a broadside at the BRS members for not supporting the Speaker, who allowed them to attend even after the opposition members hurled abuses at the Chair. The BRS MLAs verbally abused the police, staged a semi-nude protest, and even insulted the Speaker.

The Speaker permitted them to attend the session, anticipating the BRS legislators would apologise to the Speaker and participate in the debate on people’s issues. Instead, the BRS MLAs created a ruckus in the House, and the Speaker was forced to suspend them.

“Respecting the Speaker is a tradition for the members. The Speaker is the one who protects the rights of every member in the House.” The Chief Minister pointed out that it was the previous government that formulated certain rules regarding the conduct of the House proceedings.
