BRS MLCs T Madhu, N Naveen suspended from Telangana legislative council

  • On Tuesday, the Telangana Legislative Council suspended BRS MLCs Tata Madhusudhan and N Naveen Kumar Reddy for the remainder of the session following alleged derogatory remarks made against Assembly Speaker Gaddam Prasad Kumar.
  • The suspension stems from a Monday protest at the Assembly gate where the two lawmakers wore T-shirts containing 'objectionable' remarks and allegedly directed insulting comments toward the Speaker and his mother.
  • Legislative Affairs Minister D Sridhar Babu moved a motion passed unanimously by the Assembly condemning the conduct as amounting to 'outrage of the modesty of the women present.' The MLCs were suspended under Rule 308 of the State Legislative Council rules.
  • Police arrested the pair Tuesday morning under the BNS and SC/ST Act, though a local court rejected the remand request and ordered them to furnish a personal bond of Rs 20,000 each.
  • The incident triggered broader political fallout, with Congress workers marching toward BRS president K Chandrasekhar Rao's farmhouse. The Assembly resolution demanded that Rao take responsibility for his party members' conduct and tender an unconditional apology to the Speaker.
