NTR was not even given an opportunity to speak

• TDP has the history of attacking the speaker and the Governor as well
• YSRCP MLA Peddireddy slams TDP

Hyderabad: YSRCP's senior leader and MLA Peddireddy Ramachandra Reddy opined that the Government was conspiring against the MLAs of opposition YSRCP. He remarked that Yanamala's resolution and provoking behaviour of ruling party leaders in the monsoon assembly sessions were part of this conspiracy. The assembly marshals were supposed to enter the house only after any member was suspended, but the Government had tried to run the session in their presence from the beginning, he complained.

AP assembly's privilege committee meeting began. Discussion took place on the incidents that had happened during the monsoon sessions of the house. Privilege committee decided that a report should be submitted to the speaker within 45 days. After the meeting ended, Peddireddy spoke to the media. He slammed TDP for having attacked the Governor and the speaker in the past. He also reminded how NT Ramarao had not even been given a chance to speak after he was pulled off the CM's throne, specifying that Yanamala also had had a role in that.

Peddireddy mentioned that they had been fighting for the sanction of special category status for AP for two years and had insisted on discussion on the issue in the house. He made it clear that they had not abused or insulted anybody in the house and hence, appealed in the meeting for not taking any action against them.
