IMC budget passed without debate

INDORE: The IMC's ( Indore municipal corporation) budget for 2013-14 was passed without a debate on Tuesday amidst din in the house. Along with the budget, 13 more issues listed on the agenda for the second day of the budget session were passed with majority votes in a few seconds without even reading out the agenda.

The session was marked with heated arguments, protests and allegations followed by the adjournment of the house. The day ended abruptly with the expulsion of Congress corporator Chhote Yadav. Sensing trouble, mayor Krishnamurari Moghe left the house in haste.

Later in the day, a group of Congress corporators led by MLA Ashwin Joshi, rushed to the mayor's house and attempted to enter inside. It resulted in a scuffle between the Congress and BJP corporators. Miffed at the way the proceedings of the House were conducted, the Congress corporators demanded a meeting with the mayor seeking an explanation from him. However, they were forced out by the BJP corporators and police.
