Madhya Pradesh Congress spokesman receives threatening calls

Madhya Pradesh Congress spokesman KK Mishra today said he received a threatening call warning him to stop making statements against state industries minister Kailash Vijaywargia.

Mishra told PTI that he received the phone call when he was sitting at the Madhya Pradesh Congress office on Monday evening.

He said this was the second time that such a call has been made to him for speaking against the minister.

The spokesman said that he had complained to the police which had traced and identified the caller as Subhash Sisodiya of Indore who was a small-time leader with the BJP.

Meanwhile, BJP sources said Mishra was trying to seek cheap publicity. 

"When no Congress spokesman has been threatened why should such threats be given to Mishra alone," they said.
