Telangana Assembly: Over 20 BRS MLAs Suspended for Remainder of Session
Speaker G. Prasad Kumar approved the suspensions after BRS members entered the well of the House and demanded debate over police conduct and Congress remarks.
Over 20 members of the Bharat Rashtra Samithi were suspended from the Telangana Assembly on Wednesday, September 9, 2026, for the remainder of the monsoon session after disrupting proceedings by entering the well of the House.
BRS Working President K.T. Rama Rao sought an adjournment motion to debate alleged police high-handedness against women MLAs and reported comments by Congress members wishing death upon BRS chief K. Chandrasekhar Rao.
Ignoring repeated appeals from Speaker Gaddam Prasad Kumar, Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka, and Legislative Affairs Minister Sridhar Babu, members chanted 'we want justice' while thronging the Speaker's podium.
Sridhar Babu moved the suspension motion, alleging that BRS members were creating a ruckus to prevent the House from functioning rather than following proper procedures to seek redressal.
Amid the standoff, Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka rejected the death wish allegations, asserting that Congress leaders wish Chandrasekhar Rao a long life while accusing BRS of intimidating the Chair.
