T MPs interrupt Prez address

New Delhi: It was an unusual protest in the Central Hall of Parliament on Monday.Normally MPs from fringe groups take the protest route to make a point during the Presidents address to the joint sitting of both Houses opening the budget session. But on Monday morning,10 Congress members surprised everyone by interrupting President Pratibha Patil towards the end of her address and raised slogans in support of a separate Telangana state.Two TDP members also joined the shouting brigade.We want Telangana, they kept shouting until some party managers rushed to persuade them to sit down.The MPs were disappointed by the absence of any mention of the Telangana issue in the Presidents address.

Notably,managers seemed indulgent of the compulsion of MPs to protest on the Telangana issue on which party has been pushed on the backfoot because of Centres backpedalling from the announcement favouring the creation of the separate Telangana state.The government which has since been trying to wriggle out of the spot it has pushed itself in,is to shortly call a meeting of all political parties. Indeed,the banners had party chief Sonia Gandhis picture claiming Jai Congress,Jai Telangana (Victory to Congress victory Telangana). They,however,sat down when vice-president Hamid Ansari began reading the English version of the speech.The members displayed the banners again when Patil took leave of the members with a namaste on her way out of the Central Hall.The Cong MPs also demanded the recall of the governor.
