Besides, when questioned about the talks going on the political corridors that BJP leader Deepak Joshi likely to join Congress party, Mishra said, "He is senior party worker and he has been in the cabinet with me. He is an able person and under his shed many leaders like me joined the party and got evolved. Deepak Joshi is our senior worker, we all are with him."

Our Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan had made Ladli Lakshmi Yojana for daughters, and over 42 lakh Ladli Lakshmi are millionaires in MP. CM made Ladli Bahna Yojana for women, over 1 crore forms have been filled till now. We started the Tirth Darshan Yojana and Kanya Dan Yojana. Today, the whole country is following our policies."
