Top politicians lash out at CM

Chetan Yadav, who lost to CM Mohan Yadav from Ujjain South constituency, hit out at the Chief Minister, accusing him of promoting alcohol, satta and land mafia and tarnishing the image of Mahakaleshwar temple in the name of imposing darshan tax and promoting VIP culture.

Hitting out at the ruling BJP, Jitu Patwari said the Mohan Yadav government should ban alcohol in Ujjain. “People in Ujjain are leaving out of fear. We will not let this happen.”

Ex CM reached Ujjain days ago

According to information, prior to the days of protest, ex CM Digvijaya Singh reached Ujjain. Before participating in the protest, Singh went to Mahakal temple to offer prayers.

During the protest, Singh hit out at the current government and said, “The BJP government is grabbing land that was allotted to the poor and farmers during the Congress regime. Attacking the Centre, he said the Modi government consists of big corporates. “They started by giving Rs 1,250 to Ladli Behnas but took a lot of money for the utility bills.”
