TDP MLA P Keshav on Tuesday announced that the Seemandhra legislators from his party were willing to support the YSR Congress Party to stop division of Andhra Pradesh.
Speaking to media persons at the Assembly's media point, Keshav said that the TDP and YSRCP had sent notices to Speaker Nadendla Manohar seeking a resolution in the House to reject the State Reorganisation Bill. He said Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy too had sent a similar notice under Rule 77 to the Speaker.
Keshav said that the Speaker could accept any or all three notices and place them in the House for consideration. This would enable voting on the Telangana Bill. He said that the TDP MLAs from Seemandhra region were willing to support the YSRCP if the Speaker accepts their notice. He said that preventing division of the State was more important that the party's flag or agenda.
