Andhra Assembly adjourned over Telangana issue

Hyderabad, Dec 8: Andhra Pradesh Assembly was adjourned for the day on Tuesday, Dec 8, after TRS demanded a resolution on a separate state of Telangana.

Speaker Kiran Kumar Reddy had to adjourn the house twice as TRS legislators rushed to the podium after he rejected their adjournment motion.

The TRS wanted the house to pass a resolution for a separate state of Telangana.

Even after the speaker adjourned the house for 15 minutes, TRS legislators remained where they were raising slogans of 'Jai Telangana'.

After the house reassembled, TRS stuck to its demand while the other opposition parties supported it.

Meanwhile, TRS chief K Chandrashekhar Rao's fast for Telangana entered the 10th day even as all-party meeting convened by Andhra Chief Minister K Rosaiah was held on Monday night, Dec 7, in Hyderabad.
