Hyderabad | 6th February 2013
The Telugu Desam Party and the Bharatiya Janata Party condemned GHMC Mayor Mohammad Majid Hussain for adjourning the GHMC's council meeting after passing the condolence motion for Sarojini Pulla Reddy.
The TDP and BJP corporators staged a dharna before the Mayor's chambers, and shouted slogans against him.
Talking to reporters, TDP floor leader Singireddy Srinivas Reddy alleged that the Mayor was deliberately avoiding discussions on the civic problems being faced by the people.
Singireddy said that there were several precedents when the GHMC had gone back to business after passing condolence motions.
Citing a few instances, he said that the GHMC council conducted its regular business after passing condolence motions for Jyoti Basu, Y S Rajasekhara Reddy and Salahauddin Owaisi.
The TDP leader also condemned the Mayor for not allowing women corporators, including former Mayor Banda Karthika Chandra Reddy, to speak on the condolence motion on Sarojini Pulla Reddy.
Meanwhile, BJP corporators condemned the Mayor for not taking up a condolence motion on the demise of Telangana protagonist Konda Lakshman Bapuji. (INN)
