The trouble began when it was reported that around 8 MLAs of the Congress were whisked away to a hotel in Gurgaon. The Congress alleged that the BJP was holding them against their wishes. Congress leader Digvijaya Singh, who turned up at the hotel in Gurgaon claimed that he was not allowed to meet the MLAs.

Singh later said that the Congress government is secure and will complete its five year term. Kamal Nath on the other hand accused the BJP of trying to destabilise the government in collaboration with mafia groups. The BJP has however denied the allegations.
