Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan called on Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav with a delegation, days after he criticised the State Government over the demolition of houses of 12 tribal families in Kosmi village under his stronghold Budhni assembly constituency. State Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Hemant Khandelwal also attended the late-night meeting at the CM residence in Bhopal.

The meeting comes amid a controversy that erupted after Mr. Chouhan, on Sunday night, made an angry statement against the demolition of houses and the destruction of crops of tribals, despite having spoken to Chief Secretary Ashok Barnwal and Mr. Khandelwal to halt the Forest Department’s action earlier that day. The remarks had set the buzz of a rift between Mr. Chouhan, who was the CM for nearly 17 years, and his successor Mr. Yadav.
