STAFF REPORTER

The Legislative Council witnessed pandemonium on Thursday with the ruling party and opposition members trading charges against each other on several issues.

Education minister N Lokesh intervened to say that his mother was humiliated in the legislature in the past, which had made his father, Chandrababu Naidu, to take an oath not to attend the assembly until he was re-elected as CM. The YSR Congress leaders also humiliated Sharmila Reddy and Vijayamma, he said. Lokesh noted that the YSRC had even given a poll ticket to the one who humiliated his mother but he lost the elections. In a reply, opposition leader Botsa Satyanarayana said the YSRC would not support people who humiliated women. Home minister Vangalapudi Anitha raised her voice, strongly protesting against the opposition members’ actions and claimed that the present government was implementing the poll promises one-by-one. “We are also clearing the debt left behind by the YSRC government.”
Council chairman Koyye Moshenu Raju rejected the adjournment motion from the opposition YSR Congress members seeking discussion on the arrest of some social media activists for posting “derogatory” remarks on social media platforms. YSRC members trooped into the well and even climbed up the podium, raising slogans like ‘We Want Justice’ and ‘Save Democracy.’
The chairman repeatedly asked the members to calm down and return to their seats. He advised opposition leader Botsa Satyanarayana to get his members back to their seats. “They may raise the matter in a different format for a discussion of the issues,” Raju proposed. Three MLCs -- Pothula Suneetha, Kalyana Chakravarthi and Karri Padma Sree --wanted the council chairman to accept the resignations they submitted to him a few months agoThe council was adjourned by the chair following the uproarious scenes. Once the council resumed the session, the chairman called for a general discussion on the state budget. The opposition members, one after another, targeted the ruling TD-led NDA government, saying it did not make adequate provisions in the budget to fulfil the ‘Super Six’ poll promises. A huge amount of `76,000 crore was required per annum to fulfil the poll promises, but the budget made only “meagre” allocation of funds, they alleged.
