In a video statement that has raised eyebrows, former Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Kamal Nath expressed his desire for his party's candidate, Veerendra Raghuvanshi, to receive a ticket for the upcoming assembly elections. Kamal Nath's comments were made after supporters of Veerendra Raghuvanshi, who was not given a ticket to contest from the Shivpuri constituency, protested in front of him.

During this protest, Kamal Nath was shown encouraging the protesters to tear the clothes of Digvijay Singh and Jayvardhan Singh, referring to senior Congress leaders, as a sign of protest. He said, "I still wish for Veerendra Raghuvanshi to get a ticket. I have left it to Digvijay Singh and Jayvardhan Singh, but there seems to be some misunderstanding. Now, you guys go and tear Digvijay Singh and Jayvardhan Singh's clothes."

Digvijay Singh responds

This video has triggered a debate within the political circles of Madhya Pradesh and garnered responses from various leaders. In response to the video, Digvijay Singh posted a message on social media that reads, "When the family is big, there can be both collective happiness and collective conflict. Wisdom suggests that elders should patiently resolve the differences. God supports those who combine their hearts and hard work."

This video statement from Kamal Nath has created a stir on social media, with BJP leaders sharing it widely. The Madhya Pradesh assembly elections are scheduled for November 17, 2023, and 230 constituencies are up for grabs.
