The Congress on Thursday appointed former Union minister Kamal Nath as President of its state unit in poll-bound Madhya Pradesh.

Party MP Jyotiraditya Scindia has been appointed Chairman of the Campaign Committee. Kamal Nath, a MP from Chhindwara, has replaced Arun Yadav as the state Congress chief.

Besides Kamal Nath, the party also appointed four Working Presidents - Bala Bachhan, Ramnivas Rawat, Jitu Patwari and Surender Choudhary.

The appointments were made by Congress President Rahul Gandhi.

Assembly elections in Madhya Pradesh, which the BJP has ruled for 15 years, will be held later this year.
