The high court lawyer, Syed Yakoob Zainulabideen, in his complaint filed with the Election Commission of India, alleged that on December 8, T Raja Singh and other BJP MLAs, declined to take oath before pro-tem Speaker Akbaruddin Owaisi since he is from minority community, disrespecting the Constitutional authority who is governor of the State of Telangana.
