Assembly Speaker Tammineni Sitaram has ruled that the members of the Assembly shall not bring any mobile phone, recorder or interceptor to ensure smooth functioning of the House.
The Speaker delivered the verdict after Telugu Desam Party legislators created a ruckus for the third consecutive day over their demand for an adjournment motion to discuss the death of 18 people in Jangareddygudem.
The Speaker, while rejecting the adjournment motion, said that under Rule 316, no member can bring a mobile phone or recorder to the House.
Mr Sitaram also said that the dissent motion moved by TDP members was rejected as the motion was not in order.
