Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Friday slammed Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra for drawing analogies through films during her campaigning, saying she came to MP for 바카라œentertainment바카라 and disrespecting democracy and people.

바카라œCongress is not serious. I want to ask Priyanka Gandhi whether acting or 바카라˜Jai-Veeru바카라™ or if a film can be made on Modi ji (Prime Minister Narendra Modi) is a poll issue. She has made fun of elections. It is disrespect to democracy and the people,바카라 Chouhan told PTI at his ancestral home in Jait of Sehore district before heading for voting in the MP assembly polls.

Voting began at 7 am in all 230 constituencies in the state. 

바카라œShe is not at all serious. They consider polls, people and democracy entertainment. That's why they arrived here for entertainment. It is a reflection of her poor thinking. Talk about serious issues. Can you contest polls on the issue of CM acting in films,바카라 asked Chouhan, referring to her remarks during campaigning.

Addressing an election rally in the Datia assembly constituency, Priyanka had termed Chouhan a 바카라œworld-famous actor" and said he could outshine Amitabh Bachchan. 바카라œBut whenever someone talks about work, he starts behaving like (comedian) Asrani,바카라 she had said. 

She also targeted PM Modi for 바카라œcrying바카라 about the abuse he had faced from the opposition and said a film titled 바카라˜Mere Naam바카라™ should be made on him.

Chouhan appealed to the people to vote for a better future for youths, the welfare of society and the progress of the state.

The CM highlighted steps taken by his government for all sections, especially women through the 바카라˜Ladli Behna바카라™ scheme, and said they plan to also start a 바카라˜Lakhpati Behna Yojna바카라™ programme. He referred to the 바카라˜Kisan Samman Nidhi바카라™ started during his tenure and the promise to procure paddy at Rs 3,100 per quintal and wheat at Rs 2,700 per quintal among others.

Responding to a query that he did not campaign in his constituency Budhni ahead of the polls, Chouhan said people have always blessed him in Budhni. 바카라œI have been serving them continuously. People only asked me not to campaign here and come only for voting,바카라 he said.

Congress has fielded TV actor Vikram Mastal of Ramayan-2 fame from Budhni to take on Chouhan.

Responding to another question on alleged attacks on his party workers, Chouhan said 바카라œthey바카라 (Congress leaders) are nervous sensing defeat, and tried to attack BJP workers and their homes. 바카라œThey are distributing liquor and goats and accusing BJP of doling out favours,바카라 he said.

바카라œAs they are aware of their defeat, they have started creating an atmosphere of accepting it from now itself,바카라 he added.
