SHIVPURI (Madhya Pradesh): Madhya Pradesh Minister Suresh Rathkheda has sparked a political controversy by his remarks about "selling" himself while switching his loyalties from the Congress to the BJP along with JyotiradityaScindia, forcing him to clarify his position. Addressing a public rally at Bhorana village on Saturday ahead of the bypolls in the state, the Scindia loyalist reportedly said: "Some people will come to you and say don't vote for Suresh Rathkheda; he sold you. I sold myself only for serving the interests of the common man in Madhya Pradesh. That's why I left the Congress with Scindia." (IANS)
