The Telugu Desam Party on Friday suspended four of its 'rebel' members of Legislative Assembly from the party with immediate effect for defying it and voting in the Presidential election on Thursday.
In a novel protest against the recalcitrant Andhra Pradesh Assembly Speaker Nandendla Manohar, a senior rebel Telugu Desam Party leader Nagam Janardhan Reddy has lodged a complaint with the police that the Speaker was missing.
Two Telangana MLAs Nagam Janardhana Reddy and Koppula Harishwar Reddy who had filed a police case claiming that Andhra Pradesh assembly speaker Nadendla Manohar was 'missing,' will be served with notices for privilege and contempt of the House, officials said.
Fifteen rebel members of Legislative Assembly belonging to Andhra Pradesh's ruling Congress and main opposition Telugu Desam Party were today disqualified for voting in favour of a no-confidence motion moved by TRS against the Kiran Kumar Reddy government in March this year.
