Congress has made it clear that it will surround the three ministers of the government, including Deputy Chief Minister Rajendra Shukla, Urban Development and Housing Minister Kailash Vijayvargiya and Tribal Affairs Minister Vijay Shah in the House and boycott them. The party says that these ministers will neither be allowed to speak nor will they be heard.

On which issues will there be uproar in the Assembly?

Congress has decided to highlight the issue of death of children in Chhindwara, Betul and Pandhurna allegedly due to consumption of poisonous cough syrup “Coldrif”.
