The leaders of the political parties seem to have frightened at the behavior of its parliamentarians. They might be doing something of which the leaders might have felt not to telecast,” said AAP leader Yogendra Yadav in Mumbai on Tuesday evening. Yadav said that all the political parties are responsible for the issue of Telangana as they are playing politics with the issue over the years. “But, the Congress should be held responsible for it. Because, it had, in its manifesto in 2004, assured to carve out Telanagana and it took ten years for it and let the people suffer,” alleged Yadav. He added that AAP was blamed by the political parties, few years back, for bringing down the dignity of the parliament due to the proetests and Morchas. “But, it is not the protests or Morchas that bring down the dignity of the parliament but the act or behavior of the parliamentarians inside the parliament brings down the dignity,” said Yadav. Meanwhile, the statement issued by the Lok Sabha said that the black-out was neither intentional and indicates that it wasn’t ordered by Speaker Meira Kumar. It was a technical fault.
