Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): It looks like corruption has reached new heights… so tall that even a CM was not spared! Over a dozen vehicles from Chief Minister Mohan Yadav’s convoy had to be towed after water-mixed diesel was used during refilling at Bharat petrol pump in Ratlam on Thursday.
The incident took place just before the CM’s scheduled visit. Officials later sealed the petrol pump for supplying contaminated fuel.
A video of the vehicles being towed and one of the drivers speaking to media personnel has been circulated on social media.

Shubham Parmar, one of the drivers, explained what happened. He said, “We came from Indore with the vehicles for the convoy. On the way, fuel got low, so we stopped at a petrol pump to fill diesel. Some vehicles stopped soon after refueling, and others broke down near the highway.”
When the drivers asked the pump staff if there was something wrong with the fuel, they denied any issue. But after checking, the drivers were shocked to find that the diesel tanks had water mixed in them.
According to information, the vehicles had come from Indore and were supposed to be part of the CM’s convoy.
The fuel was taken from a local Bharat petrol pump, which was later sealed by officials for supplying contaminated diesel.
“It was half diesel, half water,” said Shubham. All 19 vehicles had to be towed, and the matter was reported to officials. Some officers even visited the spot.
The incident caused a stir but did not affect the CM’s visit schedule. An investigation is now underway.
