Telugu Desam Telangana Forum convener Errabelli Dayakar Rao on Wednesday alleged that Speaker Nadendla Manohar is working under immense pressure.
Speaking to media persons here, Errabelli said that the Speaker is under pressure from Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy and others.
He said that the Speaker should perform his duties in a free and fair manner without succumbing to any pressure.
Failure to do so would amount to disrespect to the post that he is holding, he said.
Errabelli made it clear that the legislators from the Telangana region wouldn't allow the House to function till the Speaker rejects the notice served to him under Rule 77 by the Chief Minister and others.
He said that the House has already become divided on regional lines and therefore, the Telangana Bill should be sent to the Centre as per the set deadline. (INN)
