Zero hour probe unfair

Hyderabad, Jan 4: YSR Congress has said
that the Speaker constituting a committee which implies to inquire into the
proceedings of the zero hour on December 22 is unfair and it comes at a time
when a no-confidence motion was pending against him. ‘The hint at the terms and
reference that the committee would probe the issues mentioned by members during
the zero hour on December 22 is very unfair on two counts. 

First the main opposition YSR Congress
was not present in the House at that time and zero hour is only a mention which
needs to be completed in less than a minute. If the members are allowed to
speak at length, tutored or otherwise, it reflects on the conduct of the house
proceedings,’ party MLA G Srikanth Reddy told reporters here on Monday.

The zero hour mention is not the issue,
and a committee set up to inquire into it is very unfair and the videos of
assembly proceedings being leaked out and when the Speaker feigned ignorance it
is more ridiculous.

Two versions of videos had come out.
Only the reaction of YSR Congress members was shown and they were edited in
such a manner to show the opposition members in poor light.

‘What our MLA RK Roja spoke was shown
and what provoked her was not shown. The unruly behavior o the ruling party was
not shown and this selective release of videos of the House proceedings is
objectionable. The setting up of a committee on the zero hour proceedings only
shows that the entire committee has a pre-planned agenda and wanted to function
as per the script,’ he said.
