TRS, Cong MLAs indulge in banter
Pleasant moments were seen in the State Legislative Assembly on Friday when TRS legislator Guvvala Balaraju placed his party\'s pink khandwa (scarf) around Congress MLA Sampath Kumar\'s shoulder.
Hyderabad: Pleasant moments were seen in the State Legislative Assembly on Friday when TRS legislator Guvvala Balaraju placed his party's pink khandwa (scarf) around Congress MLA Sampath Kumar's shoulder. During the Question Hour, Sampath Kumar walked up to the treasury benches, apparently to have some discussion with Balaraju and other TRS MLAs.
While sharing some pleasant moments, Balaraju replaced Congress party's khandwa from Sampath Kumar's shoulder with his party's khandwa. Although Sampath Kumar removed the TRS khandwa immediately, he returned to his seat with a big smile on his face. When media persons sought his reaction, at the end of day's session, Sampath Kumar said that he had no plans to join the TRS and what Balaraju did in the House was in a lighter vein and nothing more should be read into it.
Sampath Kumar (Alampur) and Balaraju (Achampet) are legislators from Mahbubnagar district and are said to be good friends despite being members of different political parties.
