Victory For People Of Madhya Pradesh: Jyotiraditya Scindia

Madhya Pradesh strong man and BJP's Rajya Sabha candidate, Jyotiraditya Scindia took to Twitter on Friday, to comment on the collapse of the Kamal Nath-led Congress government in his home state. Scindia quit the Congress two weeks ago to join the BJP.

In his tweet, Scindia observed that the people of MP had won. The four-term Lok Sabha member from Guna said that he always believed that politics should be a means to serve the people at large. Scindia added that the Kamal Nath government strayed away from this path.

Truth triumphed in the end, Jyotiraditya Scindia observed concluding his tweet with the words Satyameva Jayate.

Kamal Nath stepped down as the chief minister of Madhya Pradesh after a media briefing on Friday at which he announced his resignation. Later, he went to the Governor Lalji Tandon's residence to submit his resignation.

In his letter of resignation, Kamal Nath said that that he would always work for the people of the state. He offered his congratulations to the incoming chief minister and remarked that he would always extend his cooperation to him.

The Congress heavyweight from Chhindwara and incumbent chief minister, was to face a floor test as ordered by the Supreme Court on Thursday. Meanwhile, the Speaker of the Madhya Pradesh assembly accepted the resignations of all the 22 rebel MLAs.

With the collapse of the Kamal Nath government, decks appear to have been cleared for the return of BJP's Shivraj Singh Chauhan as the chief minister of the state.
