Hyderabad: Two political personalities got the most media attention on the first day of budget session of Telangana Legislative Assembly. Former Deputy Chief Minister Dr T Rajaiah was in for a surprise when he was received by the Home Minister Nayani Narasimha Reddy, Minister Jogu Ramanna, Parliamentary Secretary Srinivas Goud and other TRS legislators.
- Rajaiah, Uttam cynosure of all eyes
- BJP MLAs arrive with protest placards
The Home Minister walked towards Rajaiah, gave a warm handshake and offered him a TRS kanduva. While he was about to get into the House, Deputy Chief Minister Mahmood Ali came in and greeted Rajaiah. Congress MLA Uttam Kumar Reddy, who has recently been appointed as the TPCC chief, too was given a warm reception on his arrival to the Assembly. He was received by several Congress legislators, who later accompanied him to the House.
However, the colourful padayatra by the BJP legislators proved to be a show-stopper. The electronic media journalists and photographers who were capturing different moods of legislators turned their attention to the BJP MLAs who entered the Assembly premises by holding placards against the GHMC's forced collection of Property Tax. The TDP MLAs along with yellow scarfs sported black scarfs as protest against the government.
