Speaker disallows three adjournment motions
Hyderabad, Nov 7 (INN): Assembly Speaker S Madhusudan Chary has disallowed three adjournments motions moved by the opposition parties demanding discussion on farmers suicides and energy crisis.
As soon as the House met on Friday, Congress, TDP and BJP members moved separate adjournment motions on the issue. However, the Speaker started the Question Hour amid protest by TDP members demanding sacking of Agriculture Minister Pocharam Srinivas Reddy for his alleged remarks questioning the authenticity of farmers' suicide.
The House was adjourned twice for brief periods before the suspension of 10 TDP MLAs for creating uproar. After the suspension and later eviction from the House by marshals, the House was adjourned for 15 minutes after Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao, Leader of the Opposition K Jana Reddy and others spoke on the issue.
After the House re-assembled, MIM floor leader Akbaruddin Owaisi pointed out that the Speaker has neither allowed nor disallowed the adjournment motions moved by the opposition parties. Reacting to this, Madhusudan Chary immediately announced that he was disallowing the adjournment motions.
