New Delhi, Apr 6: Five Lok Sabha Yuvajana Shramika Rythu Congress Party (YSRCP) MPs resigned on Friday to protest Centre's failure to grant Special Category Status (SCS) to Andhra Pradesh. 
Andhra Pradesh lawmakers YV Subba Reddy(Ongole), Mekapati Rajamohan Reddy(Nellore), YS Avinash Reddy(Kadapa), V Varaprasadarao Velagapalli (Tirupati)and Midhun Reddy (Rajampet) submitted their resignation letters to Lok Sabha Speaker Sumitra Mahajan.
The letter carried only one line: "I hereby tender my resignation of my Lok Sabha seat in the House with immediate effect.”
YSRCP MPs will go on an indefinite hunger strike at AP Bhawan here, said party chief Jagan Mohan Reddy tweeted. 'We will observe relay hunger strikes across the state. We continue to stand in solidarity with the people of AP in their fight for Special Category Status!' he said.
In another tweet, Mr Reddy said 'We do as we say! YSRCP MPs are submitting their resignations today.'
He also challenged Chief Minister and TDP chief N Chandrababu Naidu to make his party MPs resign and 'stand united with the people of the state in their rightful demand of special category status for Andhra Pradesh'. 
The Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha were adjourned sine die on Friday.
The YSRCP move comes after growing bitterness between the parties in Andhra Pradesh and the Bharatiya Janata Party-led government at the Centre.
Both the YSRCP and Telugu Desam Party, which pulled out of the NDA on March 16, moved no-trust motions against the government over its refusal to accord Special Category Status to Andhra Pradesh as committed to it at the time of the state's bifurcation in 2014. UNI

Amaravati Mar 19: Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu said that the clandestine tie-up between the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) and the BJP was exposed and people understood the same.
The Chief Minister held a teleconference with party MPs and other senior leaders here on Monday. 
Speaking on the occasion, he told the MPs that moving No-Confidence motion against BJP-led NDA government in the Lok Sabha by the TDP led to National debate on the injustice, meted out to the state by the Centre. He told them that several parties had come forward extending solidarity to the TDP. 
He asked the TDP MPs to ensure that No Confidence motion is moved in the house. Mr Naidu also directed them to continue to register protest, if the house was adjourned without taking up the issue.
The Chief Minister pointed that the Congress party in its plenary announced that it would accord Special Category Status (SCS) to AP, if voted to power. When the Opposition Congress had announced SCS to AP, what is the objection for the BJP led Centre to it, Mr Naidu asked.
YSRCP MP Vijay Sai Reddy’s kneeled down before Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh was clearly indicating that the YSRCP-BJP clandestinely tied up for political mileage. The YSRCP leaders were trying to mortgage the interests of the state by joining hands with the Centre to get rid of corruption cases, he charged. 
“BJP is trying to get No Confidence motion moved by one party and trying to make another party agitated to get the House adjourned. There No question of compromising with the interests of AP. All the 19 assurances of AP Reorganisation Act 2014 should be honoured” Mr.Naidu said. UNI
