Indore: In a recent political event, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav did not hold back in criticizing the Congress party. He took a jab at their Indore Lok Sabha seat candidate, who withdrew from the race at the last minute. Yadav stated that it was not his party's fault if the "groom ran away before the wedding". The Congress faced a setback in Indore when their candidate, Akshay Kanti Bam, withdrew his nomination on April 29, which was the last day to do so. Later, Bam joined the rival party, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
During a BJP campaign rally at Betma, Yadav questioned the Congress' claims of BJP's wrongdoing in Indore. He compared the situation to inviting the whole village for a wedding feast, only to have the groom run away before the actual ceremony. Yadav further criticized the opposition party for asking local voters to choose the NOTA button, stating that it was an insult to democracy. He also questioned the responsibility of the Congress in this situation, saying that if a child runs away from home, it is the parents' responsibility to take care of them.
Yadav actively participated in a roadshow in Indore city to show his support for BJP's incumbent MP, Shankar Lalwani. He referred to the opposition alliance as the "Ghamandiya" alliance and mentioned the epic Ramayana and the city of Lanka, which was the capital of its villain, Ravan. Yadav stated that these "arrogant people" were born in Lanka 17 lakh years ago during the time of Lord Ram. He further accused them of posing as fake saffron-clad people to abduct Sita due to their lack of intelligence.
During the roadshow, Yadav urged the voters to reject the Congress' plea to choose NOTA and instead, vote for their party. He compared this situation to Sita's mistake of crossing the "Lakshman Rekha" in the Ramayana and asked the people of Indore to promise that they will not cross this line under any circumstances.
Taking a dig at state Congress president Jitu Patwari, who hails from Indore, Yadav mentioned his defeat in the Rau seat in the previous year's assembly elections. He claimed that Patwari was afraid of contesting the Lok Sabha election after facing defeat from BJP's Madhu Verma. In contrast, Yadav pointed out that even some 80-year-old Congress leaders were contesting the election.
Yadav also brought up the Congress' decision to leave the Khajuraho Lok Sabha constituency to the Samajwadi Party as part of a seat-sharing agreement. He alleged that this showed the Congress' fear of facing elections. The event concluded with Yadav urging the people of Indore to vote for BJP and not let the Congress' fear tactics influence their decision.
