Telangana Chief Minister KCR, in his recent meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi asked him to revoke his government’s ordinance on Polavaram Project, with which several tribal villages are submerging. However, Modi is reported to be told him that the matter can be discussed later. So, TRS MPs have made protests in Lok sabha today opposing NDA government’s decision in this regard. Though, there are T-Congress MPs present in the house none of them have joined their protests, because it is their own party has cleared way for Polavaram project.
However, Biju Janata Dal MPs of Odisha have joined them, because Odisha also has similar objections on the project. Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik, who met Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently, also appealed him not to go ahead on this project. However, he also gets same answer that KCR gets from Modi. So, MPs of both states have staged protests in the Lok Sabha and virtually brings the house proceedings to halt. Speaker Sumitra Mahajan has repeatedly appeals them to return to their seats, but when they did not respond to her appeals, she adjourned the house to tomorrow. TRS might be quite to find new friends in the house to continue their fight.
