Oct 22, 2023
Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh) [India], October 22 : Exuding confidence, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Sunday said that under the "leadership of PM Modi" and with the "blessings of the people," the BJP will win the next month's assembly polls in the state.
The state is scheduled to vote on November 17 with the counting of votes on December 3.
"Under the leadership of PM Modi and with the support and blessings of the people, we will ensure BJP's victory. Our workers and leaders are working for this," Chouhan told ANI.
Targeting the opposition, Chouhan said that Congress just makes false promises in the state.
"Congress make false promises every day, Congress has not opened a shop of love but a shop of lies, the people of Madhya Pradesh will not trust them," Chouhan said
"I don't understand whose Congress is in Madhya Pradesh, Sonia Gandhi's Congress or Mallikarjun Kharge? It seems that Congress has become Kamal Nath's Congress in Madhya Pradesh. He is doing the survey. He is distributing tickets", he added.
There has been a continuous war of words between the BJP and the Congress as the poll pitch is gaining momentum in the state.
Earlier today, Congress leader and former Madhya Pradesh CM Kamalnath took potshots at the BJP and the Centre, alleging that they have turned the Madhya Pradesh into a "Choupat" (destroyed) state.
"They have turned Madhya Pradesh into a 'Choupat' state. People from every section of society are distressed here. The economy is 'Choupat', and the health facilities are 'Choupat' here. Be it educational facilities or agriculture, everything is ruined", Kamalnath said while addressing a public rally in Madhya Pradesh's Seoni.
Further, taking a jibe at the central government, the Congress leader said, "Our country is loaded with diversity. Our culture is based upon 'amicable relationships'. But the culture is now being attacked. Look at Manipur, what happened there? Our culture is endangered".
