The proceedings of the Madhya Pradesh State Assembly were adjourned for 10 minutes on Wednesday after the Opposition Congress created ruckus and walked out of the House over union Home Minister Amit Shah’s controversial statement regarding Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar in the parliament yesterday.

The state Assembly leader of Opposition, Umang Singhar, raised the issue in the House today, the third day of the five-day ongoing winter session. He demanded that Shah must tender an apology for his statement.
