In Assembly i interrupted 17 times while I was speaking in the assembly,” said Leader of Opposition Y.S.Jagan Mohan Reddy.Speaking to reporters in Hyderabad on Tuesday, he said such incidents had never taken place in the history of the country. Only the speeches of ruling party leaders are being broadcast on the TV channel.
“I was not allowed to speak even I hinted on walking out of the house. I talked about only on the budget allocations. I did not mention other topics. Yet, my mike was cut off,” said the leader of opposition.“The Assembly has only one Opposition party and the people want to hear the speeches of the Opposition leaders.But, we were allotted less duration to speak in the house. There is no need to criticize Dr.Y.S.Rajasekhar Reddy, who is not in the house at present,” said Y.S.Jagan.
He blamed that their versions on any topic were not being broadcast in some TV channels. “When the ruling party leaders criticize Dr.Y.S.Rajasekhar Reddy, it gets maximum coverage,” said Y.S.Jagan.He said that 40 percent of time must be allocated to them as they have 67 members in the house.“If the situation continues like this, we will not hesitate to Bring in no confidence motion against the speaker. Suspension on our MLAs must be lifted. People won’t tolerate this kind of behavior of the ruling party,” said Y.S.Jagan.
