Hyderabad: In fresh trouble for the Telangana Rashtra Samiti government in Telangana, an RTI reply revealed that Commercial Taxes Minister Talasani Yadav has violated the anti-defection law.
Yadav, who defected to TRS from the TDP, was appointed as a Cabinet Minister without officially resigning from the TDP. It means that under the anti-defection law, he was appointed as a Cabinet minister unconstitutionally.
The RTI query was filed by Congress leader Venkata Ramana Reddy.
The Congress has demanded Yadav's disqualification.
Opposition parties have been demanding implementation of the anti-defection law and stern probes against all MLA who shifted parties after the state elections in 2014.
Meanwhile, the high court also sought to know time required by the Speaker to dispose pending disqualification pleas of defected MLAs and MLCs.
