Andhra Pradesh: No point in attending Assembly without LoP status, says Jagan
AMARAVATI: YSR Congress Party president Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy on Thursday made it clear that there is no point in attending the Andhra Pradesh Assembly unless the status of Leader of Opposition is accorded to him.
Former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Jagan asked the Assembly Speaker what was stopping him from giving opposition party status to the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP), the only party in opposition in the House.
Responding to queries at a news conference here, he said that only the Leader of Opposition status would give him sufficient time to "expose mischievous deeds" of the coalition government.
"The only party in opposition is the YSR Congress. All other parties are in the ruling government. You should question the democracy of the Speaker. What is stopping the Speaker from giving it the status of an opposition party," he asked.
