Telangana Speaker to Decide on Disqualification of Five BRS MLAs Today
Telangana Assembly Speaker is set to announce a decision on Wednesday on the disqualification petitions filed against five BRS MLAs, following the deadline fixed by the Supreme Court. The issue has drawn significant political attention, as it could have an impact on the strength of parties in the Assembly.
The petitions were filed after the MLAs were accused of defection, with petitioners seeking their disqualification under the anti-defection law. The Supreme Court had earlier directed the Speaker to take a decision within a specified time frame, stressing the need for timely action in such matters.
Sources said the Speaker examined submissions made by all parties concerned before arriving at a decision. Political circles in Telangana are closely watching the outcome, as it may influence future political alignments and legislative proceedings.
Leaders from various parties have urged respect for constitutional processes and the rule of law. The Speaker’s decision is expected to be announced later in the day.
