Senior BJP leader Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Wednesday said that the Congress government in Madhya Pradesh has yet not waived farm loan as promised by it during the state polls.

He claimed the Madhya Pradesh government would not "survive long as it is run by two-and-a-half men".

"Congress has deceived the people of Madhya Pradesh by making a false promise that it would waive the loan of farmers within ten days of forming the government. But till date, no loan has been written off," Chouhan told reporters here.

"The Madhya Pradesh government will not survive for long as it is run by two-and-half-men-- Kamalnath, Digvijay Singh and Jyotiraditya Scindia," alleged the BJP leader.

Chouhan, who is in Dhanbad for election-campaign, further alleged that all the three Congress leaders in that state were quarrelling with one of the leaders writing letter to the chief minister every day, "resenting over the function of the government".
