In Madhya Pradesh, BJP leader Sajjan Singh Yadav was removed as Bhind district Kisan Morcha president after organizing a rally with around 120 vehicles, defying Prime Minister Narendra Modi's appeal to conserve fuel amid global energy concerns.

Separately, BJP MLA Pritam Singh Lodhi faced criticism for leading a convoy of over 300 vehicles, raising questions about adherence to the fuel-saving directive. State leaders have since urged compliance with Modi's appeal.
