Telangana Congress president N Uttam Kumar Reddy today hailed the Hyderabad High Court verdict quashing the notification expelling two state congress MLAs from the state assembly.

"The development is a slap on the face of the TRS government," he said.

Reddy alleged that the TRS government indulged in an undemocratic action.

"The downfall of the TRS government has now begun," he said.

RC Khuntia, in-charge of Congress affairs in Telangana, said in a release "Ultimately, justice has prevailed and illegal decision on expulsion of two elected MLAs has been rejected," he said.

On March 13, Komatireddy Venkat Reddy and S A Sampath Kumar were expelled from the Telangana Legislative Assembly, a day after "unruly" incidents during the Governor's address to the joint sitting of legislature.

 

The Hyderabad High Court today quashed the notification issued by the Legislature Secretary expelling the two MLAs from the state assembly.
