On the first day of the budget session of the Madhya Pradesh Legislative Assembly, the Kisan Congress gathered in Bhopal to gherao the Legislative Assembly. The Congress stage collapsed during the demonstration at Rangmahal Square. According to information, more than 10 Congressmen including Madhya Pradesh Kisan Congress President Dharmendra Singh Chauhan have been injured. Congress Vice President Rajiv Singh, spokesperson Roshni Yadav are in the operation theater of Siddhanta Hospital. Former MLA Ravi Joshi and Shailendra Patel are in the operation theater of Smart City Hospital. Shortly after the incident, the Kisan Congress workers moved forward. The police stopped everyone with a water cannon. Leader of Opposition Umang Singhar said, the government does not want to listen to the farmers. When the Congress raises its voice for the rights of the farmers, water cannons are used, lathicharge is done. The injured leaders were taken to the hospital, see in the pictures… Congress Vice President Rajiv Singh’s operation is going on for 3 hours
Arteries and veins have been cut in the upper part of one of the arms of Congress State Vice President Rajiv Singh, who was injured in the demonstration, due to the iron rod entering near the shoulder. Siddhanta Hospital director Dr. Subodh Varshney said that Rajiv Singh’s surgery has been going on for the last 3 hours. It will take three-four more hours. Although he is out of danger, but there is a very deep wound in his hand. Jeetu said- The government has no answers to the questions of the farmers
PCC chief Jeetu Patwari also joined the protest. After this, he met the leaders and workers injured due to the collapse of the stage. He said that the condition of the injured is fine now. He said, neither soybean has the right price nor wheat price. What kind of arrogance is this, when farmers come to give a memorandum, they do not even listen. Our leader of opposition Umang Singhar asked 10 questions to the government, BJP’s Mohan government has no answers to these questions. We will fight the farmers’ battle with body, mind and money. Govind Singh said- BJP did not want the protest to happen
Former leader of opposition Govind Singh said about the collapse of the stage, this is a conspiracy of the BJP. They did not want the Congress protest to happen. With great difficulty, they gave permission to set up the stage, but did not allow strong pillars to be installed for the stage. And it is our tradition that the officials are also present on the stage. The stage broke due to the heavy load. Police remained deployed with water cannon and tear gas.
The police had already made preparations for the demonstration of Kisan Congress. The road from Rangmahal Square to Roshanpura Square was kept closed since this morning. The stage for the meeting of Congress leaders was built on the road itself. In view of this, the police barricaded the Roshanpura square. The police force remained deployed with water cannon, tear smoke gas and other security resources. For minute-to-minute updates of the Congress demonstration, go through the blog given below.
