In a press conference on Tuesday, Chouhan declared his confidence in Chief Minister-designate Mohan Yadav, expressing a commitment to support him. Notably, Chouhan conveyed a strong sentiment, stating he would prefer death over seeking personal favors, reinforcing his conviction that Madhya Pradesh would reach new pinnacles under Yadav’s leadership.

The oath ceremony, where Yadav, along with Deputy Chief Minister-designates Rajendra Shukla and Jagdish Devda, will take their oaths, marks a crucial moment for the state. Madhya Pradesh witnessed elections on November 17, with the BJP securing a commanding victory with 163 seats, while the Congress trailed with 66 seats.
