Hyderabad

The monsoon session of Telangana Assembly started on a stormy note on Monday with the House being adjourned for 15 minutes soon after the commencement of proceedings following disruption by the opposition members.

The BJP MLAs, who raised slogans, sought immediate debate on the inclusion of private lands of citizens in a prohibitive list under Section 22 A of Registration Act which bars registrations and other transactions.

The BJP members did not relent though Speaker Gaddam Prasad Kumar appealed to them to cooperate in beginning the proceedings.

Legislative Affairs Minister D Sridhar Babu said the government is ready for debate on the issue but it did not help.

Meanwhile, high drama prevailed outside the House as BRS members, who were wearing black T-shirts were stopped by police.

The black T-shirts had slogans like "Congress failed to deliver on its promises".

BRS MLA Sunita Laxmareddy broke down complaining that she suffered a minor injury as police were stopping them.
