Political Drama Unfolds as Congress MLA Sworn in Twice as BJP Minister in MP!

Bhopal: In a surprising turn of events, Madhya Pradesh MLA Ramniwas Rawat, a recent defector from the Congress party, was sworn into Chief Minister Mohan Yadav’s cabinet today. The ceremony, however, was marked by confusion and procedural irregularities.

The oath-taking ceremony took an unexpected twist when Rawat initially took the oath as a Minister of State at 9:03 AM, only to be sworn in again as a Cabinet Minister 15 minutes later. This double oath-taking has raised eyebrows and prompted questions about potential procedural lapses in the government.

Adding to the complexity, Rawat now finds himself in the unique position of serving as a minister in the BJP government while still technically being a Congress MLA as he has not yet resigned from the Congress. This unusual situation has sparked debate about the implications for political loyalty and representation.

The opposition Congress party was quick to react, filing a petition seeking Rawat’s disqualification. They’ve also used this incident to slam the BJP’s governance, questioning the party’s claims of administrative efficiency.
