"God sends everyone for special work. I say from my conscience that we too have been sent to this earth for some reasons. Therefore, whatever responsibility I got in the political field, I tried to fulfil it with hard work and honesty. I have full confidence that Prahlad Patel will create a new history in this new role," CM Chouhan added.

On the other hand, after filing nomination for Narsinghpur assembly seat, Union Minister and BJP candidate Prahlad Singh Patel told ANI, "Development means all the facilities that are considered at the top, are available to the common people without having to ask for them. The Modi government has done this. We did better than we had promised. False promises are not in BJP's dictionary, they are in Congress's dictionary. It is unfortunate that Congress leaders attack our heritage constantly. A comment on the CM's 'Kanya Poojan', I am saying this with sadness that even after Narmada Parikrama, Digvijaya Singh is not able to respect women power, there is nothing more unfortunate."

Notably, while addressing a press conference in the state capital on Monday, Congress leader Digvijaya Singh said, "I have not seen a person who does more drama than the Chief Minister (Madhya Pradesh), now even Prime Minister Narendra Modi feels threatened by him."

Singh made the remark in view of CM Chouhan performing Kanya Pujan at CM House on the occasion of the last day of Navratri on Monday.

Madhya Pradesh is one of the five states set to hold elections this year. The state is scheduled to undergo polls on November 17 and the counting of votes will take place on December 3. Voters will choose legislators from 230 Assembly constituencies. (ANI)
