In an extremely controversial statement, Sajjan Singh Verma, former PWD minister and Kamal Nath loyalist said that, When girls can reproduce at 15 years, why raise their marriageable age from 18 to 21 years.

His statement sparked a row with the BJP demanding for an apology and his sacking from the party.

But the Congress tried to brush off the matter, with state Congress spokesman claiming the BJP wanted to make an issue out of nothing.
