In an unusual gesture, Andhra Pradesh state assembly speaker Tammineni Sitaram on Tuesday acceded the request of Gannavaram legislator Vallabhaneni Vamsi Mohan to allot a separate seat to him in the House.

The sudden death of 65-year old person Sambi Reddy, allegedly while standing in queue for onions, at Gudivada on Monday turned out be due to prolonged illness and not due to stress for standing in queue.

The Telugu Desam Party’s latest strategy of taking political mileage by whipping up communal passions in Andhra Pradesh, there by pleasing the Bharatiya Janata Party leadership in Delhi, seems to have backfired.

This shocking statement had come straight from the mouth of Andhra Pradesh Assembly Speaker Thammineni Sitaram right on the floor of the Assembly on Tuesday.

The second day of the AP Assembly session had seen TDP expelled MLA Vallabhaneni Vamsi Mohan giving it back to the party chief Chandrababu Naidu on Tuesday.

For the last few days, the rape and murder of a veterinary doctor Disha at Shamshabad on the outskirts of Hyderabad and the subsequent killing of the four accused in an alleged encounter with the police have been making headlines in the media across the country.

The ruling YSR Congress had conveniently grabbed the opportunity on the floor of the Assembly to nail the TDP on women safety in the state.

After the recent episode of YSR Congress party MP from Narsapuram K Raghurama Krishnam Raju defying the party line on introduction of Telugu as the medium of instruction, he made it clear that he had never crossed the party line nor would he do it in future.

YSR Congress party president and Andhra Pradesh chief minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy once again took pot shots at actor-turned-politician Pawan Kalyan of Jana Sena Party who has been making wild allegations against the former.

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy on Monday hailed his Telangana counterpart K. Chandrashekhar Rao and police officers of that state for the killing of four accused of a woman veterinarian's gang-rape and murder case.

The terror and heinous crime on "Disha" in Hyderabad had given enough clue to Andhra Pradesh government to take special care to prevent such crime against women in the State.

The decision of the former Narasapuram MP and Bharatiya Janata Party leader Gokaraju Ganga Raju to quit the party and defect into the YSR Congress party has raised many an eyebrow.

The Supreme Court on Monday agreed to hear a petition against Telangana Encounter on Wednesday.

The winter session of the Andhra Pradesh state assembly which began on Monday is all set to witness the heated atmosphere with both the ruling YSR Congress party and opposition Telugu Desam Party.

Amid the nation-wide rage over rapes and growing clamour for harshest punishment to the guilty, an incident of rape of a minor girl by two youth near this temple town came to light on Sunday.
