TRS MPs move privilege motion against PM Narendra Modi

TRS Rajya Sabha floor leader K Keshava Rao and other MPs gave notice copy to Rajya Sabha deputy chairman today.

As per reports, the parliamentarians also staged a protest in the Upper House of Parliament over the issue. This came a day after protests were held by TRS party activists and Congress across the state against the PM.

“Needless to say, the August Houses run under the control and guidance of the Presiding Officer according to the Book and whose word is always final. Finding fault on either counts is a contempt of House, raising the issue of its Privilege.

In the instant case the Prime Minister tried to find fault with such conduct of the Presiding Officer and damned them as unruly,” they mentioned in the notice.

Modi on Tuesday blamed the Congress government for the abrupt passage of the AP Reorganisation Bill in Parliament in February 2014 with no debate.
