Like in 2018, Kamal Nath launches poll drive from Ujjain

UJJAIN: Former chief minister and Madhya Pradesh Congress president Kamal Nath arrived here for 'Darshan' of Mahakal before the start of his campaign for the mini-midterm elections involving 24 assembly seats in the state.

The Ujjain visit was due on July 3 but was washed out due to heavy rains.

There are striking similarities between his present campaign and the one he led in 2018 to bring the Congress back into power after 15 years. He had started the campaign with a 'pooja' at Ujjain. The key difference of course is the absence of Jyotiraditya Scindia, who blindsided him and his departure with a big chunk of the party caused the current campaign. Scindia was the campaign convener then. (IANS)
