It looks like the Telangana Rashtra Samithi government headed by K Chandrasekhar Rao wants to crush ruthlessly any kind of protest in the state assembly without giving any scope to the opposition to raise their voice.
This was evident from the way the government moved a motion suspending two Telangana Telugu Desam Party MLAs – A Revanth Reddy and S Venkata Veeraiah from the assembly for the rest of the budget session.
Speaker S Madhusudhana Chary announced the suspension after the government motion. He said disciplinary action was taken against the two members for disrupting the Governor's address.
During Governor E.S.L. Narasimhan's address to the joint session of both the Houses of the state legislature on Friday, the opposition legislators had raised slogans.
The TDP members alleged that the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) government made the Governor speak lies about the state's development.
Protesting the Speaker's action, main opposition the Congress and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) staged a walkout. The opposition parties later held a meeting with the Leader of Opposition K. Jana Reddy to chalk out their action plan.
Meanwhile, TRS defended the decision taken by the Speaker. TRS leaders demanded that TDP legislators should apologise to the house for their behaviour. They said opposition should change their attitude.
