Youth Congress activists protested in Indore over a water contamination tragedy, alleging administrative negligence and corruption by the ruling BJP. They demanded compensation for deceased families, resignations of local leaders, and cases against officials. Police detained 21 protesters due to aggressive conduct. While the Mayor acknowledged 10 diarrhea-related deaths, the state government reported four elderly deaths to the High Court. Minister Kailash Vijayvargiya's controversial "ghanta" remark added to the controversy.
