Leader of opposition Gopal Bhargava accused Chief Minister Kamal Nath of insulting martyr Ashwini Kumar. He said the funeral of the martyr was delayed due to Nath. Bhargava claimed that the district administration got the funeral delayed as Nath was late to reach the village. Bhargava alleged that the future of the state could be easily estimated when people like former Chief Minister Digvijay Singh would run the government, who paid respect to terrorists. Bhargava urged the party workers to expose the lies of the state government before the public.
