‘BJP will Play Role of a Vigilant, Constructive Opposition’

Bhopal: Taking moral responsibility for the defeat in the Madhya Pradesh assembly polls, outgoing Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Wednesday said that the BJP will now play the role of a “vigilant and constructive opposition”. He said that he did his best to get Madhya Pradesh out of the “pathetic situation” after he took as chief minister 13 years ago and made every effort for the welfare of the people and development of the state.

“Despite all the support from the central leadership and pro-people schemes of the Central and the state governments, we could not get the results to our expectations. We fell short of majority and I take all the responsibility for the party’s defeat in the state.

I could not meet the expectations of people and I failed,” he said. Chouhan said the BJP, which got 109 seats in the 230-member assembly, would play the role of a “strong and responsible opposition”. “We will play a constructive role for the development of the state and if need be we will protest and act as a vigilant watchman. We are not those who will take rest after getting defeated. We will start working as opposition from today itself,” he said. (IANS)
