2 TDP union ministers resign over special status to Andhra
TDP Parliamentarians Ashok Gajapathi Raju and YS Chowdary resigned from the Union Cabinet after meeting PM Narendra Modi on Thursday over Andhra Pradesh's demand for special status. The party had directed the MPs to resign, accusing the Centre of not honouring its promise of granting special status after the state was split to create Telangana.
