Bhopal: Madhya Pradesh Assembly Speaker N P Prajapati accepted the resignation of the remaining 16 MLAs loyal to former Congress leader Jyotiraditya Scindia on late Thursday night.

“I have accepted the resignation of the 16 MLAs who have filed a petition in the Supreme Court. Based on what they have stated there, I am accepting the resignation of these 16 MLAs also,” Prajapati told reporters.
The Speaker had earlier accepted the resignations of six ministers who had resigned from their membership.
