Despite an assurance from the government that a solution will be found to Andhra Pradesh’s demand for special status, members of the YSR Congress on Wednesday continued their protest in the Lok Sabha — the assurance has, however, convinced NDA ally Telugu Desam Party (TDP) to stay away from the demonstration.<\/p>\n

As soon as the lower house assembled to begin the day’s proceedings and took up the conventional Question Hour, members from YSR Congress, Andhra Pradesh-based regional outfit, trooped near the speaker’s podium.<\/p>\n

The party members raised slogans like “we want justice” and “give special status to Andhra”.<\/p>\n

“You continue with the protest despite the statement by the Finance Minister, why do you do that,” Speaker Sumitra Mahajan was heard asking the agitating members.<\/p>\n

Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had on Tuesday assured the members that the issue of special status for the southern state was under consideration.<\/p>\n

Making a brief intervention amid noisy scenes in the house on Tuesday, Jaitley had said: “The government stands by the commitments it has made in supporting Andhra Pradesh to the fullest. Even today, I have had a word with Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu and we are trying to find a solution.”<\/p>\n

However, the YSR Congress lawmakers continued their protest till noon.<\/p>\n

TDP leader and union Minister of State for Science and Technology Y.S. Chowdary on Tuesday told reporters that his party will maintain a “wait and watch policy”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
