Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav briefly lost his balance while riding a police horse at an event in Ujjain district on Sunday, but escaped without injury, officials said.
He later dismounted and rode a bullock cart, continuing his participation in the event organised under the 'Rahgiri Anandotsav-2026', they said.
Yadav was sitting on a police horse outside the Kalidas Academy campus when the animal became stuck, and the movement caused him to lose his balance. However, security personnel intervened and prevented a fall.
The chief minister then dismounted and rode a bullock cart as part of a programme dedicated to farmers.
Thousands of people participated in the Rahgiri Anandotsav, which features music, entertainment, and traditional games. -- PTI
