Madhya Pradesh is slated to go for legislative polls later this year, with the Congress keeping its sights set to wrest the state after remaining out of power for 15 years. The party has deputed Kamal Nath as state in-charge, Jyotiraditya Scindia as election campaign committee head and Digvijaya Singh as coordination committee chief.
Digvijaya has served as the Chief Minister of MP for two consecutive terms, before he was defeated in 2003. Subsequently, Shivraj Singh Chouhan took charge as the CM and has continued for three straight terms. It remains intriguing to be seen whether Chouhan succeeds in defying the anti-incumbency factor again. According to BJP veteran Kailash Vijayvargiya, there is only "pro-incumbency" for the incumbent government.
