Madhya Pradesh Latest NewsShivraj Singh Chouhan has asked the Centre to give Indian Citizenship to more than 2,500 Pakistani Hindus living in MP.
Shivraj Singh Chouhan, who brought BJP back to power in Madhya Pradesh staving off anti-incumbency and banking on politics of development, was sworn-in as the Chief Minister for the second successive term.
The Madhya Pradesh assembly polls have turned out to be a low point for expelled BJP leader and Bharatiya Janshakti Party chief Uma Bharati, who not only suffered defeat in her home turf Tikamgarh, but also failed in making a significant dent in BJP's victory run in the state.
It is a double bonanza for Congress leader Ashok Gehlot, who spearheaded the party campaign in the Assembly polls.
Does the unprecedented high polling percentage recorded during Madhya Pradesh assembly elections held on November 27 indicate a change of power in the state?
Maoist rebels dragged out local Congress leader Laxman Kashyap, president of block Congress Committee, from his house and killed him at village Talnar, under Mirtur police station area, in Bijapur district in tribal Bastar region.
A presiding officer was shot at in Lahar constituency on Thursday in Bhind district in Madhya Pradesh, where a 10 per cent voter turnout was recorded till afternoon.
Congress candidate from Tikamgarh Assembly Constituency has alleged that Uma Bharti, who is contesting election against him, had been distributing money to voters.
Madhya Pradesh CM sought Cong's clarification on what it meant by saying that it would win Nov 27 polls in the state under 'any circumstances'.
BSP supremo Mayawati applealed to the people of Madhya Pradesh to vote for her party which has ensured the welfare of all.
Plagued by dissidence, Congress is going all out to woo back rebels who failed to make it to the candidates' list, with Digvijay Singh citing the example of President Pratibha Patil, who was ‘denied a ticket’ in 1998 but later ‘rewarded’ with the nomination for the top post.
Ex-MP CM Digvijay Singh urged the CEO of the state to declare few polling stations under the category of 'critical polling booths'.
