Convene assembly for resolution on 'united' AP, demands YSRCP

The YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) demanded here today that the Andhra Pradesh government immediately convene the assembly and table a resolution seeking a "united" Andhra Pradesh.
"Our party president Y S Jaganmohan Reddy has sought an appointment with Governor ESL Narasimhan to apprise him of the party's stand on the need to convene the assembly and move a resolution to keep the state united, which will bring the stand of all political parties to the fore," YSRCP deputy floor leader B Shobha Nagi Reddy told reporters here.
She said that the YSRCP would write to Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy, requesting him to convene the AP legislative assembly, while YSRCP MLAs would meet the assembly speaker with a similar request.

"Both Congress and TDP are resorting to theatrics by taking divergent stands and speaking in diametrically contrasting tones in different regions. The floor of the House is the apt platform to speak about the party stand and we demand that the assembly should be immediately convened," she said, after a meeting chaired by YSRCP President Y S Jaganmohan Reddy, with MLAs and other party leaders.
Alleging that Congress and TDP are responsible for the proposed bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh, she claimed that the TDP which gave a letter accepting bifurcation of the state, is now speaking in a different voice.
