A meeting of the Jyotiraditya Scindia loyalists was held at the Utsav Vatika here to make arrangements for the visit of Scindia to the city on March 19.
At the meeting, it was discussed to felicitate the MLAs and leaders who resigned from the Congress party. The meeting was attended by former MLA Ramesh Agarwal, Ramvaran Singh and Keshav Pandey among others.
Though thousands from the Gwalior-Chambal area have resigned from the Congress party along with the MLAs there are many Scindia loyalists who have not yet left the Congress party. Notable names include DCC President Devendra Sharma, senior Congress leader Chandra Mohan Nagori and Ashok Sharma. Currently the political situation in Gwalior is murky and only time will say how things pan out.
The Scindia family of Gwalior has always played a leading role in shaping the political destiny of Madhya Pradesh during its existence of sixty four years.
The current scenario in Madhya Pradesh has once again brought to the front the role of the Scindia family in determining the political future of the State.
The resignation of 20 Congress MLAs loyal to Scindia has thrown the Kama Nath ministry into a minority government. And once again a scion of the Scindia family has become the kingmaker in Madhya Pradesh. Like his predecessors Scindia too is a charismatic leader with a strong political influence in the State.
