State Urban Development Minister Kailash Vijayvargiya came under sharp attack in the Madhya Pradesh Assembly on Tuesday as the Opposition cornered the government over deaths allegedly caused by contaminated drinking water in Indore’s Bhagirathpura, triggering repeated disruptions and an acrimonious exchange.
Between December 24, 2025, and January 6 this year, over sue through an adjournment motion, Leader of the Opposition Umang Singhar accused the government of deliberately avoiding discussion on the tragedy. “Mr Speaker, our adjournment is in place. The government doesn’t want to hear or discuss the issue of Bhagirathpura, where people have died from drinking contaminated water. Please make arrangements for our adjournment,” Singhar said, as Congress members pressed for accountability.
