TTDF would convene a meeting on July 3 to take stock of the situation. ‘‘We will take a pledge at the martyrs’ memorial here on July 4 and submit our resignations to the Speaker,” Dayakar Rao said.“We welcome the Congress MLAs’ decision to quit. It is not proper on the part of Congress MLAs to have difference of opinion on submitting resignations,” TDP MLA Motkupalli Narasimhulu told reporters.‘‘They should put a full stop to their drama and quit,’’ Narasimhulu demanded.He felt that mass resignations was the only solution for achieving Telangana, he noted. The TTDF was of the opinion that resignations should create a Constitutional crisis and should not lead to byelections.
