AP assembly adjourned as members stall proceedings

Andhra Pradesh Assembly has been adjourned for the day without transacting any business as the Telengana Rastra Samithi (TRS), BJP and CPI members have stalled proceedings. The trouble started soon after the house met in the morning when Speaker Kiran Kumar Reddy rejected to take up adjournment motions notice given by TRS seeking a resolution on separate state for Telangana. The speaker twice adjourned the house for a brief period when the TRS members thronged speaker’s podium disrupting the proceedings. While displaying placards and sloganeering in favour of Telangana, the TRS members stalled the business. BJP and CPI members also joined them at the podium. Repeated requests from the Chair to take up the agenda as decided by the Business Advisory Committee were defied by the agitating members. Earlier, the speaker also rejected adjournment motions notices given by TRS, BJP, CPI, TDP, and Praja Rajyam on different issues.<br/>
