After Jyotiraditya Scindia resigns from Congress, the crisis-hitMadhya Pradesh opposition has decided to shift its 92 MLAs either to Jaipur orsome other place in a bid to keep its flock together.

The development comes after 22 Congress MLAs loyal to Scindia whoalso resigned on Tuesday, pushing the 15-month-old Kamal Nath government to thebrink of collapse.

According to a senior Congress leader, they are going to take 92MLAs and those supporting the Madhya Pradesh government to a hotel.

The legislators will be taken either to Jaipur or some otherCongress-ruled state like Chhattisgarh, sources said on Wednesday.

The Congress is also keeping a close watch on four Independentswho are supporting the party-led state government apart from its own MLAs.

It may be mentioned that on Tuesday, 22 MLAs resigned from theparty soon after Scindia quits from the party saying that it's time that heshould move on.

The development, however, reduced the Congress government in thestate to minority.

The party unit is now making all efforts to save the KamalNath-led government in Madhya Pradesh.

On the other hand, the BJP has shifted its MLAs to Manesar atGurugram in Haryana on Tuesday night.
