While presenting the 20-year "report card" of the BJP government in the state, Shah said that the saffron party has brought a sick state at par with the developed states of the country with a holistic approach.

मध्य प्रदेश की भाजपा सरकार ने 20 साल में हॉलिस्टिक अप्रोच के साथ एक बीमारू राज्य को देश के विकसित राज्यों के बराबर पहुँचाया है और आजादी के अमृत काल में मोदी जी के नेतृत्व में किस दृष्टिकोण के साथ प्रदेश को आगे ले जाना हैं उसे भी तय कर लिया है: श्री @AmitShah pic.twitter.com/hQLVhwDaPc

"Ashish Bose, an economic analyst, presented a paper to Rajiv Gandhi in which he used the term BIMARU and said that the growth rate of the entire country is being brought down by these four BIMARU states of Bihar, United Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh," Shah said.
एक आर्थिक विश्लेषक आशीष बोस ने राजीव गांधी जी को एक पेपर प्रस्तुत किया था जिसमे उन्होंने बीमारू शब्द का प्रयोग किया और कहा कि पूरे देश के विकास दर को ये चार बीमारू राज्य बिहार, संयुक्त मध्य प्रदेश, राजस्थान व उत्तर प्रदेश नीचे ला रहे हैं: श्री @AmitShah

Amit Shah exuded confidence on the saffron party and said that in the Lok Sabha Elections 2024 it will emerge victorious on all 29 Lok Sabha seats in Madhya Pradesh. "In 2014 polls, the BJP won 27 out of the 29 Lok Sabha seats in Madhya Pradesh. In 2019 (Lok Sabha) polls, we won 28 seats. I am confident that we will win all 29 Lok Sabha seats in Madhya Pradesh in 2024," Shah said.
According to the report, preparations were for BJP MLAs, MPs, district presidents, and general secretaries to attend the Gwalior meeting. Approximately 1,500 party officials were in attendance. The meeting was held to likely finalise the party's strategy for the upcoming elections.
This meeting is significant because it is the final gathering of the state's working committee before Madhya Pradesh goes to the polls, which are scheduled for the end of the year.
In the 2018 assembly elections, the Congress secured victory in 26 out of 34 seats in the Gwalior and Chambal region. During that time, Jyotiraditya Scindia was a part of the Congress. However, after Scindia's defection to the BJP, along with his loyal supporters, the Congress could only manage to win 7 out of 19 seats in the Gwalior and Chambal bypolls held in November 2020.
