While he was lodged in district jail in Azad Nagar here, a police team `officially' arrested him for a protest on June 4 over power cuts.
Chief Minister Kamal Nath's effigy was torched during the demonstration. The BJP MLA is accused of leading the protest without taking mandatory permissions.
Inspector Rajendra Chaturvedi of MG Road police station said Akash was arrested under IPC section 188 (disobedience to order duly promulgated by public servant) of the IPC.
Ten other accused are wanted in the case, he added.
After his arrest for assaulting a civic official, Indore sessions court on Thursday rejected Vijayvargiya's bail plea, saying he will have to approach the special court at Bhopal, set up to handle cases against legislators.
Meanwhile, Vijayvargiya might have to spend some more time in jail as no decision was taken on his bail application on Thursday at the sessions court which said it was not the appropriate court to hear the matter, and referred his case to a special court in Bhopal. The case will now be heard in the court hearing matters involving people's representatives at a later date.
Vijayvargiya had moved the sessions court late on Wednesday after Judicial Magistrate, first class, Gaurav Garg rejected the MLA's bail application and sent him to judicial custody till July 11.
Observing that such crimes are on the rise in society, the magistrate had said that they must be stopped, or "otherwise people will lose faith in law and justice system".
Vijayvargiya is a legislator with a responsibility to make law and "if he violates the law himself it will have adverse effect on the common man", he added.
The magistrate had also said that Vijayavargiya is an influential person and the possibility of him intimidating and influencing the witnesses cannot be ruled out.
The denial of bail came as a blow to the MLA's supporters who had mobbed the court and had a plan to take out a rally if he was granted bail.
Former Deputy General Counsel Pushyamitra Bhargava, who submitted the application seeking release of Vijayvargiya on bail, argued that a legislator is an ex-officio councillor, and has the right to ask corporation officials under which rule, and on whose orders the action is being taken.
Meanwhile, the MLA, who spent the night in barrack No 6 with two other inmates at the Indore jail, complained of light fever. He was given preliminary treatment but was denied food from home.
Several supporters including MLA Ramesh Maindola, BJP state Vice President Jeetu Jarati, Golu Shukla were present along with supporters. However, the party organization has distanced itself from the case.
As the police brought out Vijayavargiya from the rear gate, the workers started sloganeering. Some activists started throwing stones. Police detained one worker.
