Ujjain: On September 23rd, an incident unfolded during the Jan Aakrosh Yatra organized by the Congress party in Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh. In a video that has since surfaced, Congress workers were captured engaging in a heated altercation. The event, which aimed to counter the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) Jan Aashirwad Yatra in the poll-bound state, took an unexpected turn as internal disputes within the Congress ranks took center stage.
The incident occurred in Nagra town, located in the Ujjain district, when a verbal dispute erupted between two Congress workers regarding access to the stage. Jitu Patwari, a senior Congress leader who was present to address the rally, found himself intervening to defuse the situation. What began as a verbal exchange soon escalated into a physical confrontation, with several other Congress workers joining the scuffle. The clash unfolded right in front of the stage, prompting Patwari's intervention. Madhya Pradesh is gearing up for a state assembly election in the coming weeks, and the Congress party has organized the Jan Aakrosh Yatra to challenge the BJP's Jan Aashirwad Yatra, which has been canvassing the state. Unfortunately, clashes and hooliganism have seemingly become a recurring feature of the Congress campaign.
Just a day earlier, on September 22nd, Congress supporters were seen openly displaying firearms and other weapons ahead of a rally in the Bhind district of Madhya Pradesh. During the Jan Aakrosh Yatra, supporters of Congress leader Pramod Choudhari, an aspiring MLA candidate from the Mehgaon constituency in the Bhind district, participated in a gun rally that appeared confrontational in nature. The rally was part of the broader Jan Aakrosh Yatra, adding to the growing list of incidents highlighting internal discord within the Congress party. As the election season unfolds in Madhya Pradesh, such incidents among Congress workers not only draw public attention but also underscore the challenges facing the party in maintaining unity and discipline within its ranks.
