Three BJP MLAs suspended from Telangana Assembly till end of budget session

Three Telangana BJP MLAs, T Raja Singh, M Raghunandan Rao and Eatala Rajender, were suspended from the Assembly on Monday.

The BJP MLAs wanted to organise a protest against the budget and the ruling TRS party, as they chose not to schedule the customary governor’s speech at the beginning of the budget session.

Earlier, the TRS had said that the governor's address was not required, as the budget session is a continuation of the previous session, which was not discontinued.

However, the governor’s office statement said that if the Assembly session occurs after five months, it will be considered as a new session.

The opposition BJP and Congress in Telangana have strongly condemned the decision and alleged that the TRS government was showing a ‘disrespectful attitude’ towards the constitutional guardian of the state.
