Former chief minister of Madhya Pradesh Digvijaya Singh alleged that BJP is bringing government cars packed with people to cast votes.

"Anyone who is uneducated or not fit to cast their vote can get another family member to do it. But here nine votes were cast with fake medical certificates. They are bringing government cars full of people, who cast votes. It's a violation of election rules," news agency ANI Digvijaya Singh as saying.

BJP Minister Bhupendra Singh rushed to the District Panchayat office, where Congress workers were agitating. They did not let his vehicle enter the premises of the panchayat building.

Digvijaya Singh and MLA Kari Masood did not allow Singh's car to go inside the panchayat building and stood in front of the vehicle. "This is my personal car. I am a minister and have the security that is given to a minister," Singh said.

A large team of police force has been deployed outside the District Panchayat office.
