Bhopal, June 24 -- The Congress on Tuesday sought a judicial inquiry into land purchases in Ujjain by chief minister Mohan Yadav's family and real estate firms controlled by them, claiming it to be a clear case of "conflict of interest," and demanded his resignation.
A report in The Indian Express on Tuesday revealed Yadav's family and their companies own 335 acres of land in and around Ujjain, of which about 168 acres was bought in 2024-25. Much of this land was brought close to highways and roads in Ujjain, and their value appreciated from his government's infrastructure push.
BJP state president Hemant Khandelwal said "the allegations by Congress are baseless."P8
