The Madhya Pradesh Assembly Monday passed a unanimous resolution condemning the Pulwama attack on February 14 in which 40 CRPF jawans were killed.
On the first day of the session, the House also condoled the demise of senior leaders, including former defence minister George Fernandes and ex-Goa governor Bhanu Prakash Singh among others.
The House also paid tributes to former MLAs Jitendra Singh Bundela, Ghanshya Patidar, Lokendra Singh Tomar, Mohan Singh Bundela and Krishna Vallabh Gupta.
As the House assembled, Speaker Narmada Prasad Prajapati mentioned about the death of Fernandes, Singh and the former MLAs as well as the Pulwama terror attack.
Chief Minister Kamal Nath, recalling his long association with Fernandes, said "I got an opportunity to learn a lot for him."
The MP CM strongly condemned the cowardly act of terrorists in Pulwama and said "the country will always remember their sacrifice and this incident has again united the entire country including the political class."
