A BJP MLA said, "Fire missiles and drop them in a Muslim area," then offered an explanation: "I meant Islamabad." The Congress asked the Chief Minister to clarify what action would be taken.

In Bhopal's Karond, politics heated up over a statement made by Huzur MLA Rameshwar Sharma during a pot-breaking competition on Sunday night. He said from the stage that "if you fire a missile from Karond intersection, it will fall in Kazi Camp." Immediately after this, Sharma clarified that he was referring to the Kazi Camp in Islamabad, not the one in Bhopal. Following the statement, Congress's media coordinator Abbas Hafiz contacted Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav.
