The Madhya Pradesh Legislative Assembly witnessed noisy scenes today when the ruling BJP members again raised the issue of alleged indecent remark by a Congress MLA against BJP legislator Lalita Yadav. As the proceedings of the House began today, BJP members demanded stern action against Congress MLA’s over the alleged remark. CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan interfered in the matter and requested his party members to continue the debate as it was more important. Pointing towards absence of deputy Speaker Harbansh Singh, who belongs to Congress, Parliamentary Affairs minister Narottam Mishra requested Speaker Ishwar Das Rohani to take cognizance of his absence. On the other hand, demanding resignations of Chief Minister Shivraj Singh and his ministerial colleagues over corruption charges, Congress MLA’s marched towards state assembly on the third consecutive day. They staged a sit-in at the main entrance gate of the assembly. Congress MLA’s are boycotting the four-day Special Session of the state assembly terming it as unconstitutional. <br/>
