Madhya Pradesh Governor Asks Kamal Nath To Take Trust Vote Tomorrow

The Kamal Nath-led Congress government in Madhya Pradesh was today asked by the Governor to prove its majority by Tuesday, hours after it appeared to have snagged a 10-day breather with the assembly session being adjourned until March 26 over coronavirus. In a letter to Chief Minister Kamal Nath, Governor Lalji Tandon said: "If you don't take a floor test by March 17, it will be assumed that you have lost your majority." The Governor also called the Chief Minister's letter to him criticising him for asking the Speaker for a trust vote today as "meaningless, baseless" and against constitutional values.
