Leader of Opposition in Telangana Legislative Council Mohammed Ali Shabbir and his deputy P Sudhakar Reddy petitioned the Council Chairman Swamy Goud for the disqualification of MLCs M S Prabhakar and Farooq Hussain, who had recently switched over to TRS.
They also demanded action against another MLC Rajeshwar who had defected to the ruling party earlier, Shabbir said in a release.
"Instead of setting new standards of morals and ethics in the new state of Telangana, Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao has set a wrong precedent. He engineered 47 defections which includes 4 MPs, 25 MLAs and 18 MLCs during his 24-month rule," Shabbir said.
