Assembly elections are going to be held in Madhya Pradesh this year. Before this, a leader is being discussed in full swing in the state. Yes…the name of that leader is Jyotiraditya Scindia. Union Civil Aviation Minister Scindia has said that his party BJP will retain power in Madhya Pradesh by securing a clear majority in the upcoming assembly elections. Scindia, however, refrained from speculating on how many seats the BJP would win in the elections to the 230-member assembly to be held later this year.
Let us tell you that Jyotiraditya Scindia rebelled against the Congress in March 2020 along with angry MLAs and joined the BJP. After this, the Kamal Nath government of the state fell. After the Congress lost power, the BJP formed the government and Shivraj Singh Chouhan was again in charge of the state.
Jyotiraditya Scindia spoke to the media during his visit to Gwalior-Chambal division and said that I am not an astrologer who can tell how many seats BJP will win. But we will form a government with full majority in the state. It is noteworthy that there are 34 assembly constituencies in Gwalior Chambal division. The Rajya Sabha member said that after the visit of Union Home Minister and BJP strategist Amit Shah to Gwalior on Sunday, the party workers are feeling energized and they will now work for the elections with renewed vigour.
Scindia attacked Kejriwal
On Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s visit to the BJP-ruled state of Madhya Pradesh, Jyotiraditya Scindia said that everyone knows how he has treated Delhi. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) is in power in Delhi. It may be noted that AAP convenor Kejriwal addressed a campaign rally in Satna on Sunday and assured various ‘guarantees’, including free electricity, medical treatment and construction of quality schools, besides a monthly allowance of Rs 3,000 to unemployed youth in Madhya Pradesh. Taking a veiled dig at Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan, popularly known as ‘Mama’, he introduced himself as ‘Chacha’.
The saffron party had won 109 seats in the 2018 elections.
The ruling BJP has already declared its first list of 39 candidates for the assembly elections. The election schedule has not been announced yet. Union Home Minister Shah has set a target of winning more than 150 seats out of the total 230 in the state. In the 2018 elections, the saffron party had won 109 seats, just short of a simple majority of 116.
