Amaravati: Andhra Pradesh cabinet chaired by chief minister YS Jaganmohan Reddy on Monday approved the draft bill to abolish the Legislative Council. The decision was taken during a cabinet meeting. The resolution will now be moved in the Assembly to be commenced in a short while.

The move comes days after the state government suffered a setback in the Upper House which referred the three-capital cities bill and CRDA repeal bill to the select committee.

On Thursday, Reddy had questioned the need for an Upper House “which appears to be functioning with only political motives”.
