AP Council Witnesses Uproar Over Alleged Mega DSC-2025 Lapses
In the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh, important leaders meet in a special building called the Legislative Council to make decisions.
On Monday, some leaders from a group called YSR Congress got very upset.
They were upset about a big test called Mega DSC-2025, which is used to hire new teachers.
They thought some mistakes were made during the test and wanted to talk about it.
The person in charge, the chairman, said no at first.
So the upset leaders stood up, held signs, shouted, and even climbed onto the chairman's platform.
Another leader, the agriculture minister, said mean words to the leader of the upset group.
The upset leaders wanted an apology for the mean words.
The meeting had to be stopped several times because everyone was shouting so much.
In the end, the meeting was paused and everyone agreed to meet again on Tuesday.
Opposition YSR Congress legislators demanded a debate on alleged lapses in Mega DSC-2025 teacher recruitment on the first day of the Council's 50th session.
Chairman Koyye Mosehan Raju rejected the adjournment motion and proceeded with Question Hour, in which three questions were answered.
YSRCP members trooped into the well, raised placards reading 'Mega DSC-Daga DSC', and climbed the chairman's podium while shouting slogans.
Agriculture minister K Atchannaidu accused the previous YSRCP government of failing to issue a single DSC notification in five years and called opposition leader Botsa Satyanarayana 'Daddamma'.
The chairman adjourned the house amid pandemonium (reported as twice in one article and three times in another), and the Council is to meet again on Tuesday.
