Finance Minister Jagdish Devda moved a proposal to pass the state budget. The opposition Congress demanded a vote but Speaker Narendra Singh Tomar denied permission.
Tomar subsequently adjourned the House sine die.
Outside the house, Leader of Opposition Umang Singhar told media persons that the opposition had the right to demand a vote on the budget.
