Madhya Pradesh: 10 MLAs Taken To Haryana Hotel; BJP Trying To Destabilise Govt, Alleges Congress

Amid poaching scare among the opposition parties in Madhya Pradesh, Congress has alleged that 10 MLAs of the ruling alliance have been lured to a Haryana hotel.

New Delhi: In a midnight political drama that unfolded in Madhya Pradesh’s capital Bhopal, BJP allegedly captured 10 MLAs  of Congress and allies, in a bid to destabilize the Kamal Nath government in the state. Congress veteran Digvijay Singh has claimed that six of them have returned, despite BJP’s attempts. BJP leaders are accused of taking the MLAs to a hotel in Haryana as part of a conspiracy to topple the state government. "When we got to know, Jitu Patwari and Jaivardhan Singh went there. People with whom our contact was established were ready to come back to us. We were able to get in touch with Bisahulal Singh and Ramabai. Ramabai came back, even when BJP tried to stop her," Singh was quoted as saying by news agency ANI. "BJP's Rampal Singh, Narottam Mishra, Arvind Bhadauria, Sanjay Pathak were going to give them money. Had there been a raid, they would have been caught...We think 10-11 MLAs were there, only four are still with them now, they will also come back to us," he added. On Tuesday night, Madhya Pradesh Ministers and Congress leaders Jitu Patwari and Jaivardhan Singh were seen coming out of the ITC Resort in Gurugram's Manesar along with suspended BSP MLA Ramabai. "Things are under control. We will do a press conference tomorrow (Wednesday)," said Patwari. On Monday, Digvijaya Singh had alleged that BJP leaders Shivraj Singh Chouhan and Narottam Mishra were offering bribes of Rs 25-35 crore to Congress MLAs in order to bring down the Congress government in the state. Singh on Tuesday again accused BJP of resorting to horse-trading in order to bring down the Kamal Nath government. He also said that Ramabai was brought to the national capital by a charter flight on Monday by a BJP leader.
