AP Assembly 27 Feb 2012: At last Telugu Desam Party succeeded in disrupting today's assembly proceedings. Right from the start on Monday, the TDP members insisted on continuing the debate on liquor syndicates. When the speaker Nadendle Manohar didn't allow the motion, the TDP members rushed in to speaker's podium and raised slogans. The speaker tried to convince the protesting members in many ways, he even asked them to raise the issue in some other form, so that it can be taken up for debate later, as the issue had been already debated extensively earlier in the asssembly. But the protestors didn't relent and the speaker had to adjourn the house twice successively.

The TDP members continued with their protest even after the session was resumed with Dy. Speaker Bhatti Vikramarka in the chair. After some time, when the members didn't heed to Dy. Speaker's appeals as well, the house was adjourned for tomorrow. Many a senior citizen who watched the live proceedings on TV found fault with TDP for wasting valuable assembly time by insisting to debate a sub-judice matter.
