The opposition legislators had a heated argument with the security officers, questioning the curbs on their movement in the assembly. The police intervened and evicted the lawmakers.

The legislators on Wednesday were prevented from addressing the media at media point in the assembly premises. They later called on Governor E.S.L. Narasimhan to lodge a complaint.

The legislators, who were suspended for the entire session due to the alleged disrespect shown to national anthem during the governor’s address on March 7, have been staging protest in the assembly premises in one form or the other.

The legislators led by TDP floor leader E. Dayakar Rao on Tuesday staged a sit-in in the speaker’s chamber to seek disqualification of the TDP legislators, who had defected to the ruling Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) in the last few months.

The TDP legislators who defected to TRS include T. Srinivas Yadav, who has now been made a minister.
