YSR Congress Legislature Party has unanimously decided to move a no-confidence motion against the Andhra Pradesh Speaker Kodela Siva Prasada Rao for not conducting the assembly proceedings in a fair manner giving equal opportunity to all the members. ‘The legislature party which met here on Tuesday has decided to move a no-confidence motion against the Speaker as the way the assembly proceedings were conducted were not impartial and were only one sided,’ Deputy floor leader Jyothula Nehru told reporters here.

‘Our party has taken strong objection to the style of functioning of the Speaker and we have to take the unfortunate decision to move the no-confidence motion. We had earlier also thought of moving the motion but gave a second thought assuming that the proceedings would go on smoothly but things did not improve but went from bad to worse.

We were pressing to raise a social issue of Call Money cum Sex racket but the treasury benches were hell bent on not bringing up the issue and had tried many ways. While the Legislative Affairs Minister Yanamala Ramakrishnudu had moved a motion to suspend a member for one day the Speaker had made it two days.

In the other case of suspension of Roja, who was asked to raise the issue of Call Money cum sex racket, the Speaker had gone beyond the frame of the quoted rule no 340 sub-clause (2) which clearly says that a member can be suspended only to the extent of the ongoing session. She was suspended for one year.

Ramakrishnudu and the Speaker going ahead with the suspension and the Speaker allowing incessant interruptions when the Leader of Opposition was speaking is not in the democratic spirit and we will serve the notice against the Speaker tomorrow,’ he said.
