A public interest litigation (PIL) has been filed in the Telangana High Court challenging former chief minister K Chandrashekar Rao’s (KCR) absence from the Assembly.
The petition was filed by D Vijaypal Reddy, president of the Telangana Federation of Farmers’ Associations, who urged the court to direct the Speaker and the Speaker’s office to ensure KCR attends the Assembly sessions.
The petition states that KCR has not attended the Assembly since assuming his role as the Leader of the Opposition on December 16, 2023.
