Those senior leaders on whom the state party is planning to bank as candidates include ex CM Kamal Nath, ex-state Congress chiefs and former union ministers Arun Yadav and Kantilal Bhuria, Rajya Sabha member Vivek Tankha, former leader of opposition Dr Govind Singh, current MLA Ajay Singh ‘Rahul,’ former deputy speaker of Vidhan Sabha Hina Kanware and current state party chief Jitu Patwari.In the 2019 Lok Sabha polls, despite being in power in the state, the Congress had managed to win just one out of the 29 LS seats in MP, with the then CM Kamal Nath’s son Nakul Nath emerging victorious from his father’s pocket borough Chhindwara.The notable Congress losers in the 2019 LS polls, included Digvijaya Singh (Bhopal), Jyotiraditya Scindia (Guna), Ramniwas Rawat (Morena), Ajay Singh ‘Rahul’ (Sidhi), Kantilal Bhuria (Ratlam-ST), Vivek Tankha (Jabalpur), Meenakshi Natrajan (Mandsaur) and Arun Yadav (Khandwa-Burhanpur).
