MP Elections 2023: In the political scan in the election year, we have brought the history of such an assembly of Madhya Pradesh, where the ruling party BJP needs an original BJP candidate. This assembly is the assembly of Sehore, the home district of Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan. The original BJP candidate has not been able to give a fight to the Congress candidate in the assembly elections that have been going on for the last 38 years.
