Rebel MLAs, who defied whip during the no confidence motion, appeared before Speaker Nadendla Manohar on Thursday and asked him to take immediate action.
Nine Congress and nine TDP MLAs were issued notices by the Speaker, following complaint from the Parties, to explain as to why they voted against the party whip. The rebel Congress MLAs asked the speaker to disqualify them immediately. They requested the Speaker to take a decision by May 14 which would ensure by-elections.
Among those who attended the Speaker’s Chamber include Perni Nani, Maddala Rajesh, G Ravi Kumar, Jogi Ramesh, Alla Nani, Vanitha, Shivaprasad TDP rebel Kodali Nani and others.
