New CM’s To Take Oath Today Under PM Modi’s Presence

On Wednesday, in the presence of Prime Minister Modi and other top BJP officials, Mohan Yadav and Vishnu Deo Sai, the newly appointed chief ministers of Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh, will take the oath.

There are now rumours regarding the cabinet vacancies after the BJP revealed its unexpected picks for chief ministers, ending the suspense over the identities of the CMs. The swearing-in ceremonies at the two states today will probably put an end to this. On December 15, Bhajan Lal Sharma, the chief minister of Rajasthan, will take the oath.

58 years old Mohan Yadav is a well-known OBC leader and a three-time MLA. Mohan Yadav, who has ties to the RSS, was initially elected to the Ujjain South legislature in 2013 and won the seat again in 2018 and 2023. Mohan Yadav, an LLB, MBA, and PhD holder, served as Shivraj Singh Chouhan’s cabinet minister of higher education.

Mohan Yadav’s two deputies are Rajendra Shukla and Jagdish Devda. The speaker of the Madhya Pradesh Assembly will be Narendra Singh Tomar.

BJP’s resounding majority in Madhya Pradesh was led by Shivraj Singh Chouhan, who expressed his confidence that the state will advance under the new chief minister’s direction. “I would rather die than go and ask something for myself. I won’t go to Delhi,” the outgoing chief minister said.

Vishnu Deo Sai, the newly appointed chief minister of Chhattisgarh, is 59 years old and would be the state’s first tribal chief minister. Another surprise from the BJP in the state it took from the Congress was the appointment of Vishnu Deo Sai, a former MP and Union minister, as chief minister. Though Sai has years of experience in electoral politics and also of working at the grassroots level, he was not seen as a frontrunner as he lacked a public profile.

Vishnu Deo Sai’s deputies will be Vijay Sharma and Arun Sao. The speaker will be Raman Singh, a former chief minister.

The party presented a new line of leaders, dumping the rumored names that were making the rounds, and it took a week to finalise the identities of the chief ministers and deputy chief ministers.
