5 MLAs suspended. Mallesh sent to Jail.

Mallesh, driver of TRS leader E. Rajender, was sent to jail until March 29 for allegedly hitting Lok Satta president Jaiprakash in the Andhra Pradesh assembly premises the day before. He was produced before Deputy Speaker Nadendla Manohar, who ordered that he be lodged in jail till the end of the budget session March 29.
Manohar informed the house that an outsider was involved in the attack and it was breach of privilege of the member. He also sought a detailed report on the incident from Hyderabad Police Commissioner A.K. Khan.
A first information report (FIR) was registered on a complaint by legislature secretary Raja Sadaram. Mallesh has been booked under Section 353 of the Indian Penal Code, which relates to assault or criminal force to deter public servant from discharge of his duty.
Many wondered if terming TRS MLAs as anti-social and making sarcastic comments was the duty that he was discharging.
Earlier, five Telangana MLAs including Harish Rao were suspended for seven days for allegedly heckling governor ESL Narasimhan during his address to the House on Thursday.
Interesting part was that educational institutions in Andhra and Raylaseema regions were closed to protest the attack. Students at universities in the Andhra and Rayalseema regions took out “rallies” condemning the incident !
