Won’t wear garland until BJP government in Madhya Pradesh goes, says Jyotiraditya Scindia

A by-election is due for the Mungaoli seat following the death of senior Congress MLA Mahendra Singh Kalukheda.

Attacking Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan, Scindia said he claimed to be a priest who worships people, but these days he is putting his god behind the bars.

Scindia also took a dig at Chouhan for promising anything, asking people to demand the moon from him.

“I am sure he will promise to bring you the moon,” Scindia said, criticising Chouhan for visiting Mungaoli with an eye on the by-poll and making tall promises.

Mungaoli is part of Scindia’s Lok Sabha constituency, Guna.

The Congress leader also criticised Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government for demonetisation which he said affected people, especially women, in a big way.
