CM-designate Mohan Yadav, displaying humility, remarked, “I am a small worker of the party. I thank all of you, the state leadership, and the central leadership. With your love and support, I will try to fulfill my responsibilities.” This statement reflects Yadav’s commitment to his new role and his acknowledgment of the party’s collective effort.
In an exclusive conversation with India Today, Yadav extended his gratitude to key BJP leaders, saying, “I thank Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, party President JP Nadda.” His appreciation signifies the importance of cohesive party support in undertaking the responsibilities that come with the role of Chief Minister.
Former CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan, congratulating Yadav, expressed optimism about the future of Madhya Pradesh under the new leadership. He stated, “Hearty congratulations to hardworking fellow Mohan Yadavji on being nominated as the Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh in the BJP Legislative Party meeting. I am confident that under the able guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, you will take Madhya Pradesh to new heights of progress and development and will create new records in the field of public welfare. Many congratulations and best wishes for this new responsibility!”
