The Medak Telugu Desam MLA, Mr Mynampalli Hanumantha Rao, withdrew his resignation.
Mr Hanumantha Rao had created a stir among Telangana activists by announcing his decision to quit his Assembly seat and offering it to the kin of those who died during the Telangana agitations.
When he met his supporters in Hyderabad, they reportedly opposed his resignation.
Mr Hanumantha Rao’s supporters insisted on Monday that he must withdraw his resignation since there was no response to his offer from any political party, including the TRS.
He told agitators that he would abide by his decision.
Telugu Desam sources revealed that Mr Hanumantha Rao’s decision was the outcome of a running feud with the former TRS legislator, Mr T. Harish Rao and that it was taken to settle scores with the TRS president, Mr K. Chandrasekhar Rao.
Sources added that the Telugu Desam chief, Mr N. Chandrababu Naidu, had asked the legislator to withdraw his resignation as there was not much of a response to his offer to quit for the Telangana victims.

TD MLA opposes TRS stand
The Medak Telugu Desam legislator, Mr Mynampalli Hanumantha Rao, has opposed the TRS demand for resuming government land in his constituency where a large number of people from other regions live.
He said that it was not correct to call those who have been living in Telangana since ages as “settlers”, the term that the TRS uses. “I have decided to quit keeping in view the Telangana sentiments and the promise I made to people of my constituency. I am sure people of my constituency will understand,” Mr Rao said.
He said he would request the TD leadership to give ticket for the bypoll to the kin of those who laid down their lives for Telangana. “I will work for the victory of the candidate,” he added.

TD MLA to quit for T-victims’ kin
The Medak Telugu Desam legislator, Mr Mynampalli Hanumantha Rao, on Thursday startled the party leadership by announcing his decision to vacate his Assembly seat for the kin of those who laid down their life during the ongoing Telangana agitation.
Mr Rao said he would meet the Speaker, Mr N. Kirankumar Reddy, on March 9, his lucky number, and submit his resignation. There is a growing demand from the Students Joint Action Committee to nominate the kin of those died during the Telangana agitation for the bypolls from the 12 Assembly seats vacated by the TRS (10), BJP and TD (one each).
Mr Rao’s decision will put the TRS in a fix since it has not spelled out its stance on the S-JAC demand. The TD’s deputy floor leader, Dr Nagam Janardhan Reddy, tried to defuse the situation saying he would speak to the MLA since his announcement looked more like a challenge to the former TRS MLA, Mr T. Harish Rao.

The TD MLA suggested that the eligible relatives of Srikanth Chary, Venugopal Reddy, Yadaiah, who committed self-immolation, or those suggested by the Students Joint Action Committee should be given ticket in the seats vacated by the TRS and others in the bypolls.
