Congress Stages Walkout in MP Assembly Over Delhi Heat
In the Madhya Pradesh Assembly, the Congress party and the BJP government had a big argument.
The Congress wanted to talk about the police using sticks on students in Delhi, but the BJP said only state issues could be discussed.
This made the situation very noisy.
Later, a Congress MLA said a big irrigation project was a failure and threatened to quit if the government's claims were true.
The government said they would fix the problems.
Also, Congress MLAs walked out because the government didn't give a clear answer about paying farmers who were affected by natural disasters.
Congress demanded a discussion on the lathi charge on students in Delhi, but the BJP government objected, leading to a heated argument.
Congress MLA Babulal Jandel threatened to resign over the failure of the Chambal Micro Irrigation Project, claiming only 12 hectares were irrigated instead of 12,000.
The government promised to inspect and repair the project if necessary.
Congress MLAs staged a walkout during Question Hour over pending compensation for natural calamity-affected farmers in Mandsaur.
The government claimed the highest compensation package had been given to Mandsaur but did not provide a clear answer on the pending payments.
