AP House for 1-year ban on Roja for abusing Telugu Desam MLA V Anitha

Hyderabad: In yet another blow to the Nagari YSR Congress MLA R.K. Roja, the privilege committee of the AP Assembly on Saturday evening recommended a year’s suspension for her for abusing TD Payakaraopet MLA Ms V. Anitha.

The committee that met under the chairmanship of senior MLA Gol-lapalli Surya Rao recommended the action against Ms Roja which will be taken up by the House on Monday.

Ms Roja is already facing a one-year suspension of her membership for her unruly behaviour. And though she has obtain a stay order from the High Court on the suspension, the matter has been referred to a division Bench of the High Court, which is likely to come up for hearing Monday.

According to sources, the fresh recommendation of the privilege committee is totally different and it is for the House to consider whether to apply the one-year suspension recommendation in addition to the suspension she is already faced with.
