Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar on Sunday said she would soon take a decision on the resignations of some MPs from Andhra Pradesh over the Telangana issue.
Some resignation letters were not according to the required format. “I have asked them (MPs) if they are (really) interested to resign,” she told reporters at the airport.
“I will be soon giving my decision on the resignations,” she said.
The MPs had sent in their resignations at the height of the agitation over creation of separate state of Telangana.
Replying to another question,Kumar said Union Chemicals and Fertilisers Minister M K Alagiri was yet to meet her on the issue of allowing him to speak in Tamil in Lok Sabha.
“I can take a decision only after meeting him (Alagiri). So far he has not met me,” Kumar,who is on a two-day visit to the state,said.
