Jagan's unparliamentary language invites Speaker's wrath

The Andhra Pradesh Speaker on Friday said that the Leader of Opposition, YS Jagan Mohan Reddy's remark would not go into records.

"As opposition leader you have to observe restraint and speak responsibly. You cannot use unparliamentary words. It is unbecoming of an opposition leader," the Speaker told Jagan.

"Either you withdraw your words or I shall wipe them out from the record. They will not go into the record," the Speaker said.

The YSRC sought to blame the government for encouraging "political murders" in which at least 14 of its workers were "killed" in the last three months.

The discussion saw verbal exchanges between the ruling and the opposition members. As the YSRC dug into the past, referring in particular to a murder that happened decades ago, the TDP hit back with equal vigour making Jagan the main target.
