BRS leaders in Hyderabad met with Council Chairman Gutha Sukhender Reddy on Friday. They asked for the disqualification of BRS members of the Legislative Council who switched to the Congress party.
Specifically, the BRS leaders requested the disqualification of MLCs Patnam Mahender Reddy and Kusukuntla Damodar Reddy. These MLCs were originally elected from the BRS party but later joined the Congress.
The leaders delivered a petition to Chairman Gutta Sukhender Reddy at his residence in Jubilee Hills. MLCs MS Prabhakar, Yadava Reddy, Sheri Subhash Reddy, and BRSLP Office Secretary M Ramesh Reddy were among those who presented the petition.
This move comes as a response to BRS members defecting to another political party, causing concern within the BRS leadership.
