posted on Feb 22, 2012 @ 3:08PM
Speaker Nadendla Manohar announced that the five adjournment motions moved by TRS, MIM and three others have been disallowed. This sparked off protests from the members who moved the motions. The Speaker tried to passify them but the din continued in the House. Summarily, the speaker adjourned the House for half an hour.
After half an hour the House was reconvened and TRS members again persisted with their demand. At this juncture, minister Dharmana Prasada Rao tabled the motion to suspend the 11 unruly TRS members for two days. Accordingly, the Speaker suspended 11 TRS MLAs for two days. The BJP and CPI members staged a walkout in protest of suspension of TRS members. TRS floor leader Etela Rajender said "The suspension of TRS members has once again proved that this House is not AP Assembly, but it is "Seemandhra Assembly"."
