committee headed by Mr Gollapalli Surya Rao in the AP Legislative Assembly on Wednesday.

Assembly Privileges Committee chairperson Mr Surya Rao said a report will be submitted to the Speaker for further action. “Explanation given by YSRC MLA Roja has been recorded and a report on the proceedings would soon be forwarded to the Speaker of the Legislative Assembly. I cannot reveal anything more than this as the committee is a statutory body,” said Mr Surya Rao.
