Indore Water Contamination Deaths Spark Congress Protest and Demands for Accountability

In Indore, Madhya Pradesh, a contaminated water outbreak has led to at least 21 reported deaths, with hundreds falling ill. The Congress party organized a 'Justice March' (Nyay Yatra) to protest, demanding accountability, compensation for victims' families, and murder charges against responsible officials. Congress leaders criticized the BJP government's alleged failure to provide clean water and called for the resignation of State Urban Development Minister Kailash Vijayvargiya and the Mayor. The district collector has provided compensation to affected families, while Congress also demands a judicial inquiry.
