Amid high drama, the BRS sponsored no-confidence motion against the Yellandu municipal chairman D. Venkateswar Rao of the ruling Congress failed owing to a lack of requisite quorum at the special meeting of the council in the coal town of Yellandu on Monday.
The meeting was convened to take up the no-confidence motion moved by around 19 councillors of the BRS; the municipality has a total 24 councillors.
Mr. Venkateswar Rao resigned from the BRS and joined the Congress along with three other BRS councillors just before the Assembly elections in November last year.
