Hyderabad:

The Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), led by former Telangana Chief Minister Ok Chandrashekar Rao, has determined to abstain from voting within the Vice Presidential election, scheduled to be held on September 9. The announcement was made by social gathering working president KT Rama Rao. 

The BRS has 4 members within the Parliament.

Rao, generally often called KTR, mentioned the choice was made to assist the farmers, who’ve expressed ‘anguish’ over the scarcity of urea within the state. He mentioned the Bharatiya Janata Celebration (BJP) and Congress have failed to handle the difficulty. “We’re abstaining. We aren’t going to take part,” Rao was quoted as saying by information company PTI.

This comes hours after former Odisha CM Naveen Patnaik-led Biju Janata Dal (BJD) introduced to abstain from voting within the Vice Presidential election. Asserting the choice, BJD MP Sasmit Patra mentioned the social gathering has taken this determination to keep up an “equal distance” from BJP-led Nationwide Democratic Alliance (NDA) and Congress-led India bloc. 

“BJD president Naveen Patnaik has determined that the social gathering’s MPs will abstain from voting within the vice presidential elections. He took the choice after consulting senior social gathering leaders, members of the political affairs committee (PAC) and lawmakers,” Patra mentioned.
