Ahead of Madhya Pradesh Assembly Elections, Congress leader Kamal Nath on Saturday issued a stern warning to the Niwari district administration in the state.

Addressing an election rally in Niwari, Kamal Nath said no one will be spared for their deeds, without elaborating on the allegations.

“I want to tell this to the administration of Prithvipur and Niwari, whatever you are doing, listen to it carefully, the day after tomorrow, decisions will be made by you (the people) and me. No one will be spared, six more days are left. Jo karna hai kar lein par aage paanch saal bhi kaatna hai aapko (Do whatever you want to, but you also have to spend the next five years),” he was quoted by HT as having said.

Earlier, former Madhya Pradesh CM Kamal Nath warned the district officials and police personnel of Niwari in January, saying they would be held accountable in eight months. 

Kamal Nath had alleged police excesses and false cases being filed by them.

In 2018, Congress has rose to power during the last Madhya Pradesh assembly elections, with Kamal Nath taking charge as the state’s Chief Minister. However, a political upheaval rocked the state in 2020 after Jyotiraditya Scindia, along with 22 MLAs, switched over to the BJP.

He is eying a return to the helm in Madhya Pradesh after failing to contain the collapse of his last government.

Madhya Pradesh is one of the five states scheduled to undergo polls in one phase on November 17 and the counting of votes will take place on December 3.
