The Madhya Pradesh crisis began soon after Jyotiraditya Scindia, after 18 years in the Congress, joined the BJP.
Congress leader Kamal Nath on Friday resigned as Madhya Pradesh chief minister at a press conference in Bhopal hours before the Supreme Court-ordered trust vote deadline.
The veteran Congress leader, who was reading from a paper, said his MLAs were held hostage in Bengaluru.
“The truth will come out. People will not forgive them,” said Kamal Nath.
The leader failed in his attempts to woo back 23 rebel Congress MLAs, including six ministers, having allegiance to BJP leader and former Union minister Jyotiraditya Scindia.
