Notices issued to BRS MLAs who defected to Congress

Telangana Assembly Secretary on Tuesday issued notices to 10 MLAs of Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) who defected to the ruling Congress party last year.

The notices have been issued on the petitions of the BRS, seeking disqualification of the



defectors. The MLAs have sought time to respond to the notices sent by the Assembly Secretary.

The development comes two days after the Supreme Court asked the Telangana Assembly to define a “reasonable period” for a decision on disqualification pleas.
