Shivraj Singh Chouhan was Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister from 2005 to 2018 and again from 2020 to 2023. He became the Chief Minister for the first time in 2005 after replacing Babulal Gaur. He remained the CM till December 2018 when the Congress party became the single largest party in the state and Kamal Nath became the Chief Minister.
