TDP members disrupt business in Council, forcing adjournments

Members of the Telugu Desam Party disrupted the proceedings on Day One of the 43rd Legislative Council session of Andhra Pradesh on Thursday, forcing adjournment of the House twice in quick succession.

Chairman Koyye Moshen Raju’s announcement that the adjournment motions moved by the TDP and the PDF were being rejected, sparked an uproar.

TDP members P. Ashok Babu, K. Srikanth, V. Chiranjeevi Rao and Panchumarthi Anuradha moved the adjournment motion seeking a discussion on the arrest of their party president N. Chandrababu Naidu in the skill development scam, while Progressive Democratic Front (PDF) leaders K.S. Lakshmana Rao, P. Venkateswara Rao and Sk. Babji wanted a discussion on the ‘contentious’ Contributory Pension Scheme (CPS).
