Krishna Rao said that never in the history of India had such a protest taken place.
So many employees are on strike and despite that the Congress has not acted, he said.
TRS General Secretary Subhash Reddy said, "We are expecting 6 more MLAs and MPs from the Congress to join us soon. This time around the resignation has been given to the party president unlike the last time when it was given to the Speaker. They cannot sit over it or reject it this time."
