However, he surprised the party workers saying that he sees his mother in the Union Minister Sushma Swaraj.
Talking about the coordination between the Government and the organsiantion, Chouhan said the organisaton and the Government are the wheel of a chariot. Both should work at tandem. The president’s post is not a luxury but it is of hard work. He said that his priorities would be forming the BJP Government for the fourth time in 2018.
“We will not allow spoiling the dream of the Chief Minister to form the government for the fourth consecutive time. Besides, Madhya Pradesh will contribute under the leadership of Union Minister Narendra Singh Tomar to form a BJP government at the Centre in 2019,” Chouhan said.
Describing the BJP as one family and Chouhan is the captain of it, Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan said that he was confident that the organisation would be stronger under the leadership of the new chief and the party would come to power in 2018 under his leadership.
Taking a dig at the Congress, the Chief Minister said that the vicious cycle was being carried out vis--vis the reservation policy and assured that reservation would stay. He said that a campaign called Garib Kalyan would be launched on April 14, the birthday of Bhimrao Ambedkar and it would be continued till June 23 in the state and he sought cooperation from the organisation.
Terming the Madhya Pradesh’s party orgnisation is an excellent one and one of the best organisations in the country, External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj said that the party would form the government in 2018 under the leadership of Shivraj Singh Chouhan and Nand Kumar Singh Chouhan. The names of 29 members for the party’s National Council were also announced today.
Nand Kumar Singh Chouhan filed his nomination papers on Monday as he was the lone candidate for the post, hence, he was elected unopposed and his name was announced formally today in presence of galaxy of party leaders from the state and the Centre.
