BHOPAL (Madhya Pradesh): Congress leaders and women supporters of Cabinet Minister Vishvas Sarang came face to face at the Ashoka Garden police station on Thursday. The Congress leaders encountered the ministerís women supporters when they went to the police station to file a complaint against Sarang, alleging his involvement in a nursing college scam.
The minister's women supporters were already present outside the police station, shouting slogans. Their sloganeering intensified against the Congress leaders as they approached the police station. In response, the Congress workers also began raising slogans against the BJP and Sarang.
As the two sides continued their sloganeering, Congress leaders, including ex-CM Digvijaya Singh, PCC chief Jitu Patwari, Leader of Opposition Umang Singhar, and MLAs Arif Masood and Atif Aqueel, squatted on the road about 50 meters away from the police station.
Talking to the media, LoP Singhar said, 'Minister Sarang pushed his women supporters forward and hid behind them. Today, he acted cowardly by sending women to confront us.'
Congress state president Jitu Patwari said that the Congress had decided to demonstrate against the tainted BJP leaders in their respective constituencies and areas, starting with the home turf of minister Sarang. He added that the agitation against the minister would continue until he resigns from his post. LoP said that after four days he would bring before public another scam committed by minister Sarang.
After submitting their complaint, the police forced the Congress leaders to leave the premises but did not ask the minister's women supporters to vacate the area in the same manner they told the Congressmen.
