House to discuss liquor scam on Thursday: Naidu

Telugu Desam president N Chandrababu Naidu on Tuesday stated that the party would extend cooperation to government for passing a Thanks Giving motion on Governor’s address on Wednesday as it assured that it would allow discussion on liquor syndicate on Thursday.

Talking to media persons at Telugu Desam Legislature Party Office, Naidu said that the government assured the TDP in the Business Advisory Committee meeting that it would allow discussions on liquor syndicate on Thursday. Following the assurance, Naidu said that the TDP was ready to extend cooperation to government for passing a Thanks Giving Motion on Governor’s address.

Naidu came down heavily on Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy and Speaker Nadendla Manohar for adjourning the House frequently without transacting any business. Expressing serious concern over the House for not taking up a discussion on public issues, he said that Speaker should take the responsibility of functioning of the House harmoniously to uphold its respect. “The Speaker should issue proper directions to government to run the House smoothly instead of adjourning it frequently,” he said.

Responding to introduction of Telangana resolution, he said that the TDP has already made its stand clear and the ruling party has to take a final decision on it. Condemning the Congress party for targeting TDP on Telangana issue, Naidu demanded that the Congress Government must resign if it fails to resolve the issue amicably.
