ThemLAs who arttacked Taslima have taken law into their hands and one MLA was seen commenting that she deserves more .The MLA does nto even understsnd the basic redimentary responsibility of upholding the constitutional responsibilty of abiding by the oath he has tajken.It is for the Legislature of Andhra presh to ensure that the MLAho has gone against the oath he had tken at the time of assuming office as MLA is deperived of his position as MLA for openly defying and and going against it .Even he Judiciary can take suo mottu action aginst the MLA in his paertiuclkar inastnce as the MLA has committed a constituional offence openly and has taken law into his own hands .thei he could have done oinside the Assembly wiht immunity and ther eis no immuity for such an offnce committed outside the Asembly.
The oppopstion parties should ensure that the rule of law is upheld .
