Congress leader Digvijay Singh said on Tuesday that he was not a candidate for the chief minister's post in Madhya Pradesh, where Assembly elections are due by the end of this year.
The assertion by the 71-year-old former chief minister of Madhya Pradesh, came in the wake of a campaign on Twitter.
The campaign, "Digvijay4CM", demanding to project Singh as the Congress' chief ministerial candidate was launched late Monday evening. It is, however, not clear who launched the campaign.
Responding to the campaign, Singh tweeted, "Whoever has started Digvijay4CM is not my well wisher. I have been CM MP for a decade and there is no question of my going back on my statement that I AM NOT A CM CANDIDATE. I am not someone who would say something and do something else (sic)."
