Mon Dec 16 08:30:00 UTC 2024: ## BRS Walks Out of Assembly Business Advisory Committee Meeting
**Hyderabad, December 16, 2024** – The Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) staged a walkout from the Assembly’s Business Advisory Committee (BAC) meeting on Monday, protesting the lack of clarity on the duration of the Assembly session. BRS leader Harish Rao criticized the government’s approach, sarcastically referring to the BAC as a “Biscuit and Chai” meeting.
The BRS demanded a minimum 15-day session and expressed its displeasure at the government’s failure to provide a concrete schedule. The party is adamant about a discussion on the alleged handcuffing of farmers in the Laga Cheruvu area, a key issue for the BRS. They also objected to the government’s decision to prioritize discussion on the Tourism Policy over the Laga Cheruvu incident, leading to heated exchanges and the adjournment of the session until Tuesday. The BRS further protested the government’s decision-making process in the BAC, stating that their views weren’t considered.
