March 10, 2020 20:04

Amid the crisis caused by resignations of 22 legislators, meeting of the Congress Legislative Party in Madhya Pradesh began in Bhopal on Tuesday evening, with 92 of 114 party MLAs attending it.

The 22 MLAs, who have resigned from the assembly and most of whom are supporters of Jyotiraditya Scindia who quit the Congress earlier on Tuesday, were absent, sources said.

Two Bahujan Samaj Party MLAs and the lone Samajwadi Party MLA supporting the Congress government too skipped the meeting, spelling more trouble for the Kamal Nath-led Congress government which is on the brink of collapse, sources added. -- PTI
