Madhya Pradesh Congress chief Kamal Nath on Friday accused the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of distributing money and liquor to voters on the eve of the state assembly elections. Polling for the 230-member state assembly is underway on Friday. Talking to reporters at the Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) office here, Nath claimed, "Only police, money and administration are left with the BJP.

Cong, BJP look for pole position in Kamal Nath's turf in MP's Chhindwara

Madhya Pradesh Congress president Kamal Nath, whose tenure as chief minister ended abruptly in March 2020, is making a renewed attempt to bring his party to power in the state, but is facing a tough challenge from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for his own election from home turf of Chhindwara. The 76-year-old Congress veteran, the sitting MLA from Chhindwara who projects himself as an ardent 'Hanuman bhakt', is pitted against BJP candidate Vivek Bunty Sahu, a 'Shiv bhakt', in the November 17 assembly polls. Both of them also locked horns in the 2018 assembly polls when Nath trounced Sahu (44) by a margin of 25,837 votes. Since then, Sahu, renominated from the seat by the ruling party and backed by the well-oiled BJP organisational machinery, is seeking to avenge his defeat. The BJP candidate is a former Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha president for Chhindwara district and is well aware of the star constituency's voter profile and caste combinations. The saffron party is leaving no
