A war of words broke out between Congress leaders, including Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, and Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan, who targeted each other over the implementation of public welfare schemes in the state.

While Gandhi accused Chouhan of misleading people and asserted that there was no dictatorship in the Congress unlike the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), the chief minister asked why public welfare schemes of his government were stopped when the Kamal Nath-led Congress dispensation was in power in the state.

Nath, who is Congress’s state unit chief, also hit out at Chouhan, accusing him of using inappropriate language against the Gandhi family and said his party does not give false promises.
