It is not only the Madhya Pradesh government but also Rajasthan chief minister Ashok Gehlot announced withdrawing such cases in his state. This is to recall that recently BSP chief Mayawati warned not only the Madhya Pradesh government but also the Rajasthan government that if cases against people participating in Bharat Bandh on April 2, 2018 for caste and political enmity are not withdrawn, then the BSP will be forced to reconsider its decision of supporting these governments.

Sharma had already said that all the political cases registered during the BJP government would be withdrawn that means every such cases lodged in the past 15 year would meet the same fate.
