After the BJP's selection of Mohan Yadav as the Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh, the Congress has launched a scathing attack, accusing Yadav of serious allegations, including "large-scale manipulation" in the Ujjain Master Plan.

Senior Congress leader Jairam Ramesh, in a post on X (formerly Twitter), said, "Eight days after the election results, the BJP elected the Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh, a person against whom there are many serious allegations, including large-scale manipulation in the Ujjain masterplan.” The Congress leader claimed that many of his videos are surfacing on social media where he can be seen abusing and making objectionable statements.

“Out of the 872 acres of land reserved for Simhastha, their land was alienated by changing the land use. Many of his videos are also viral on social media in which he is seen abusing, threatening, and making objectionable statements,” Ramesh alleged. Is this 'Modi's guarantee' for Madhya Pradesh? Ramesh said in the post.

The announcement of Yadav's name as the Chief Minister took everyone by surprise, including Yadav himself and other BJP leaders. Mohan Yadav, a three-time BJP MLA from Ujjain South and an OBC leader, has previously served as the higher education minister of Madhya Pradesh. With a 30-year association with the Bharatiya Janata Party, Yadav is known for his assertiveness on issues related to Hindutva. He has played a prominent role in addressing the concerns of Bangladeshi infiltration, engaging in extensive travels across the country and interacting with the public on this matter.
