YSRCP MPs to Meet Lok Sabha Speaker

New Delhi: The five YSRCP MPs who resigned are meeting Lok Sabha Speaker Sumitra Mahajan this evening at 5 pm at the Speaker's office and pressurise her to accept their resignations with immediate effect. The MPs clarified that Special Category Status (SCS) to Andhra Pradesh was more important than their MPs posts. In protest against the central government not allotting SCS to AP, the YSRCP MPs submitted their resignations in official format on April 6 to the Speaker.

All the YSRCP MPs gathered at Mekapati Rajamohan Reddy's residence here today. Speaking to media Rajamohan Reddy said that they would meet the Speaker and request her to accept their resignations. He once again said that they would go to any extent for the sake of SCS to AP. Chandrababu was afraid to face by-elections and hence he did not ask his MPs to resign. The AP CM was feeling threatened by Notes for Vote and financial misappropriation cases, he added.
