Indore (Madhya Pradesh): BJP removed Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM) state secretary Shubhendra Gaud and working committee member Nayan Soni from their posts, two-day after BJYM activists had clashed in front of their state president Vaibhav Pawar at a restaurant near Bhanwarkuan Square.

Shubhendra and Nayan were removed from their posts within hours of giving an explanation to the party about the incident.
