Nalgonda Minister N. Uttam Kumar Reddy went to Delhi on Wednesday and resigned as MP. He submitted his resignation to Loks Sabha Speaker Om Birla.
Uttam had to resign from the post of MP because he won as Huzurnagar Congress MLA and became a minister.
Later, Uttam, along with his wife and Kodad MLA Padmavati, met Congress leaders Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi.
Uttam stated in a press release that he resigned as the Nalgonda MP and met Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi as a courtesy call, without discussing any politics.
With the resignations of two MPs, Komatireddy Venkat Reddy and Uttam Kumar Reddy, the former Nalgonda district now has no Lok Sabha members before the dissolution of Lok Sabha. Now, BRS associate Rajya Sabha member Badgula Lingaiah of Nalgonda district has been given more responsibility to bring the issues of the former Nalgonda district to the attention of the central government for necessary action.
