Andhra Pradesh Assembly begins on stormy note as TDP presses for a debate on job calendar

The monsoon session of the Legislative Assembly began on a stormy note on Thursday as the TDP legislators staged a protest both inside and outside the House against the government’s “failure” in implementing the job calendar.

The protests were led by party State president and Tekkali legislator K. Atchannaidu in the Assembly and by MLC N. Lokesh outside the Assembly.

The TDP moved an adjournment motion soon after Speaker Thammineni Seetharam commenced the Question Hour, pressing for a debate on the issue but to no avail as it was rejected following objections raised by Ministers Buggana Rajendranath Reddy and Ambati Rambabu.
