Kaun Banega Mukhyamantri: After Congress, is dynasty culture entering in BJP too?
Chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan's son Kartikey picked up the baton in his father's assembly constituency, Budhni, ahead of elections.
For a party that likes to attack the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty for dominating the Congress, the ruling BJP is leading the pack in Madhya Pradesh. Nearly half-a-dozen second and third generation party leaders are taking up official positions in the BJP. Many are set to play a crucial backroom role in the state assembly polls scheduled in November this year.
Chouhan’s son Kartikey Singh is not even 25, the minimum age for contesting elections. But he has hit the road already.
