Mohan Yadav pledges development after being selected as new CM of Madhya Pradesh

Mohan Yadav has been appointed as the new chief minister of Madhya Pradesh by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). The Yadav OBC community leader, who was elected as an MLA from Ujjain South, declared that his government would carry on Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s development initiatives.

15 days after the BJP crushed the Congress to win Madhya Pradesh, Yadav was chosen as the party’s parliamentary leader. The Minister of Higher Education who was leaving praised the BJP.

“Only the BJP party can assign a minor worker with such a significant task. I thank the state leadership and the central leadership. I will carry forward the development works of PM Modi,” Yadav said.

“I thank PM Modi, Amit Shah, JP Nadda, Shivraj Singh Chouhan, and VD Sharma for giving me such a big responsibility. It is only the BJP party that can give such a big responsibility to a small worker like me. I will take forward the development journey of the state,” he added.

In an effort to defuse tensions before the 2024 Lok Sabha election, the BJP has nominated Rajesh Shukla and Jagdish Devda as deputy chief ministers.

“Hearty congratulations to friend @JagdishDevdaBJP ji on being nominated as Deputy Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh in the BJP Legislative Party meeting. I am confident that under the guidance of respected Prime Minister @narendramodi ji, your efficient policies and experience will play an important role in the progress and development of Madhya State,” Chouhan posted on X.

“Friend @rshuklabjp ji, hearty congratulations to you on being nominated as the Deputy Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh. I have full confidence that with your efficient work and positive thinking, the development of the state will gain more momentum and the public welfare work will continue,” he added.
