Vyapam scam: MP bandh today, Congress seeks Chouhan's resignation

The day-long statewide bandh called by Madhya Pradesh Congress today began with party General Secretary Digvijay Singh and state unit President Arun Yadav demanding Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan's resignation over the Vyapam scam.

Yadav, along with Congress workers, reached Digvijay's house in Shyamla Hills from where the duo went on a motorcycle towards various city areas in support of the bandh call.  Singh drove the motorcycle to some distance and later got into his four-wheeler.

State Congress unit's chief spokesman K K Mishra claimed that the “bandh was highly successful and people have supported it overwhelmingly.”
