The Congress Party demanded Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan's resignation over the Mandsaur incident. Congress leader Kamal Nath said the government was bidding over the farmers' dead body. He said that ‘I demand proper investigation into Mandsaur incident. They are bidding over the dead bodies. It is very shameful. They are talking about Rs five lakh, 10 lakh, one crore. Shivraj Singh Chouhan must resign. At the end it is his responsibility and it would be unjustified if it is shifted on any police officer’.
He added that injustice is being done with farmers in Madhya Pradesh. Condemning the incident, Janata Dal (United) leader Sharad Yadav said he cannot recall such a massacre. He said that ‘I cannot recall such a massacre, they are giving death figures as five, six but I believe that there are more. I met Rahul ji today. We are planning to go there (Mandsaur, MP). We will go together if we do’.
Meanwhile, expressing grief over the deaths of five farmers, Chhattisgarh CM Raman Singh earlier in the day said innocent farmers are being used for political motives. The CM said in Raipur that ‘this is a sad event and as Chief Minister Shivraj Singh has said, there is political influence in it. The innocent farmers are being used for political motive. I express grief over this incident. I express condolence to the deceased farmers' family. Shivraj is capable of tackling the problem of these farmers.
