Speaker of Lok Sabha Om Birla made interesting comments on the question of disqualification of Narsapuram MP and rebel YSRCP leader Raghuramakrishnam Raju. He said he cannot give a running commentary on the day-to-day developments on the issue of RRR's disqualification. There cannot be daily action taken reports, he said.

Speaking to mediapersons, he said that every process has to take its due course. He said he has to listen to the arguments of both the sides and give ample scope for every party to explain their position. He also decried the statement of the YSRCP MPs that they would stall the proceedings of the Lok Sabha. He said while protest is a democratic right, obstruction is not.

He was referring to Rajya Sabha MP and YSRCP general secretary Vijaysai Reddy's statement that the party MPs would stall the proceedings of the house if an immediate action was not taken on the RRR disqualification issue. Last Friday, Vijaysai Reddy had met Speaker Om Birla to press for the speedy disposal of the petition for the disqualification of the Narsapur MP. The YSRCP has been pressing for the disqualification of RRR for his anti-party activities.
RRR has been making comments that go against the party line and has even taken on YS Jagan, the supreme leader of the party. He has both in the house and outside, made comments that damage the reputation of the party he is in. The party has demanded strong action against him and sought his disqualification from the house. The issue has been pending with the Speaker for quite some time.
