The programme was attended by district in-charge Om Patel, district Congress president Shivkant Pandey, senior leaders and party workers. A Kisan Samvad was also organised, focusing on farmers’ issues and alleged anti-people government policies.

He announced a statewide protest and warned of a major agitation in Indore on January 11 if minister Kailash Vijayvargiya does not resign.
