The Chhattisgarh Assembly witnessed turmoil as 34 Congress MLAs were suspended after protesting alleged misuse of probe agencies by the government. Former CM Bhupesh Baghel claimed investigative bodies were being weaponized to target opposition, citing his son's ED arrest and manipulation of witness statements. The suspension was later revoked after Congress members, who had entered wearing "Satyamev Jayate" posters, walked out following failed attempts to discuss their adjournment motion.
