New Delhi (NVI): The Bharatiya Janata Party moved the Supreme Court today soon after the Madhya Pradesh Speaker NP Prajapati adjourned the Assembly till March 26 without holding the floor test.
However, the apex court will take up plea filed by former MP CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan and nine other MLAs demanding floor test tomorrow. Chauhan and the nine MLAs have demanded a floor test within 12 hours. Even as the budget session was scheduled to begin at 11 am today, the assembly was adjourned in view of the coronavirus. It was immediately adjourned after Governor Lalji Tandon completed his address and left the Assembly.
The political turmoil in the state began after Jyotiraditya Scindia quit the Congress last week along with 22 MLAs, who sent their resignations to the Speaker. Scindia had then taken the MLAs to a hotel in Bengaluru to prevent them from interacting with the Congress or revoking their resignations.
