Former Madhya Pradesh chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has condemned the “life-threatening attack” on BJP leader Jyotiraditya Scindia, saying the law and order situation had collapsed in the state.

“Attempts were made to attack Scindia. Stones pelted at his car. With great difficulty, the driver managed to take the car away from the spot,” Chouhan said.

“You can imagine the kind of situation prevailing in the state. A government which has lost majority is engineering attacks. I strongly condemn this incident and appeal to police and administration to take swift action against those responsible for the attack,” he added.
