BJP v Congress in Election
The M P assembly election scheduled to happen later this year will see a tough battle unfolding between the ruling BJP and the Congress. A confident BJP has also unveiled its slogan for the election “abki bar 150 par” (victory in more than 150 seats). Notably, in a bid to counter the narrative, the Congress has launched a ‘Jan Akrosh Yatra’ in the state to highlight the “failures” of the Shivraj Singh Chouhan-led state government.
