State BJP unit spokesperson and MLA Vishwas Sarang said, “The BJP has decided to contest the coming Assembly polls under the leadership of Chouhan by showcasing the government’s achievements from 2003-2013.”
Sarang also said, “Definitely it will be a fight between Chouhan and Congress as the party has not yet declared anyone as its leader for the elections.” He also added that there are many claimants in the party for the post of Chief Minister. Sarang also said that the names of Congress unit president Kantilal Bhuria, Union minister Jyotiraditya Scindia and Leader of Opposition in state Assembly, Ajay Singh have cropped up, which means total confusion.

During his ongoing Janashirwad Yatra, Chouhan on a number of occasions had alleged that Congress leaders were targeting him on personal issues as they were unable to find any faults with his welfare policies or corner him on any other issues.
