AP CHIEF MINISTER N KIRAN REDDY RESIGNS
New Delhi: Andhra Pradesh chief minister N Kiran Reddy on Wednesday submitted his resignation to governor ESL Narasimhan to protest the UPA government’s decision to bifurcate the state and create Telanagna, India’s 29th state
In a media conference at his office, just before submitting his resignation at the Raj Bhavan, Reddy lashed out at the Congress party for flouting all parliamentary procedures while bringing and passing the Telangana bill in Lok Sabha.
“I am ashamed. They did it like thieves, cutting the live telecast. What was the need to do like this?” Reddy questioned.
He also said that he is also resigning from the post of MLA as well as the membership of the Congress party.
The Telangana bill was passed in Lok Sabha on Tuesday with the BJP coming in support of the UPA to clear the Andhra Pradesh State Re-organisation Bill.
