Telangana BJP President and Union Minister G. Kishan Reddy has confirmed that the party MLAs will not take oath in the maiden session of the new Legislative Assembly in protest against the Congress Government appointing Majlis Party leader Akbaruddin Owaisi as the pro-tem speaker, on Saturday.
“Within three days of taking power with a tiny majority and in danger of collapsing any day, the Congress Party has gone back to its traditional ways throwing legislative practices to the winds as the the party will need the Majlis Party support. What was the basis to appoint Mr. Owaisi when there are so many other senior legislators,” he questioned, at a press conference at the party office.
