An ugly spat broke out between ruling Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) party leaders, with an MLA snatching the microphone from an MP during a protest in Mahabubabad.
TRS MLA Banoth Shankar Nayak of Mahabubabad snatched the microphone from his own party MP, Maloth Kavita, during a protest. The entire incident took place during a protest organised against the BJP-led union government on Thursday, April 7.
The differences between Shankar Nayak representing Mahabubabad constituency and MP M Kavitha representing Mahabubabad parliament constituency came out in the open when party leaders were participating in a dharna demanding that the union government procure the entire paddy of the state’s farmers.
As instructed by the party chief and CM K Chandrashekar Rao, the protest was organised at district headquarters.
When TRS MP Kavitha was addressing the gathering, TRS MLA Shankar Naik stood at the stage and snatched the microphone from the MP, saying he would speak.
