Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Kiran Kumar Reddy resigns

A day after Lok Sabha has passed the controversial Telengana Bill, the Andhra Pradesh chief minister Kiran Kumar Reddy has resigned from his post on Wednesday. He has also resigned as MLA and from the Congress party.

Reddy has hit out at both the Congress and the BJP for passing the bill in the Lok Sabha.

“It is shameful that this bill was presented like robbers, hiding from people, putting off TV, throwing out those who were objecting. The BJP also conspired to harm Telugu people, striking a secret deal with the Congress,” Reddy said.

“Nowhere has a bill rejected by the state assembly been passed by Parliament. For seats and votes, all political parties have done lot of harm to Telugu people. I condemn this. Telugu people will all be harmed by this,” he said.
