T-MPs see Sushma hand
Telangana Congress MPs who were suspended for four days from the Lok Sabha for continuously interrupting proceedings, vowed to resume stalling the House next week. On Thursday they blocked the main entrance to the Lower House of Parliament for about half-an-hour. Their protest led to some of the MPs using alternative gates to enter the House. All the eight suspended MPs returned from New Delhi on Thursday evening and paid their homage at the Telangana martyrs memorial at Gun Park near Assembly.
They said there was no question of going back on their fight to achieve Telangana state. “We will not boycott the House proceedings. We will attend and again stall the business,” the MPs Madhu Yashki Goud, Ponnam Prabhakar and others told the media. They alleged that the senior BJP leader Sushma Swaraj had suggested their suspension from the House for causing disruptions and the Congress central leadership had also colluded with the BJP to get them suspended from the House.
They said the BJP had earlier deceived the people of Telangana by promising one vote-two states and later did not act on their promise at the behest of Telugu Desam. They said all like-minded parties and associations who were genuinely wedded to the Telangana ideology should help the Telangana Congress leaders in achieving the separate state goal. The MPs have said they will visit their respective Lok Sabha segments from Friday to know the pulse of the people and then formulate their next course of action.
