In a dramatic turn of events in Bhopal, several Congress leaders and party workers were injured after a protest stage collapsed during a rally on Monday. The protest was aimed at highlighting the unmet promises for farmers by the ruling party.
The incident occurred during a demonstration led by Madhya Pradesh Congress officials, including State Congress President Jitu Patwari and Leader of Opposition Umang Singhar. The protest, intended to press for farmers' rights, quickly turned chaotic as the stage gave way, leaving leaders sprawled on the ground.
Jitu Patwari asserted that the Congress party's responsibility is to defend the rights of women, farmers, and youths, urging the government to fulfill promises of Minimum Support Price for essential crops. The protest signals an ongoing commitment to take the fight from the streets to the state assembly in support of farmers.
