Addressing a public gathering in between the road show, Chief Minister Chouhan said, “I am your chief minister for last 13 years and there has been Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government in the state for last 15 years and during all this time on one side we have done development work whereas on the other hand, have left no stone unturned for the welfare of public. We have undertaken welfare work for people irrespective of any religion.”

He also touched upon various welfare schemes initiated by the Madhya Pradesh government under his tenure.
