Ruckus after the release of the list
After the appointment of 71 district presidents by the Congress in Madhya Pradesh, widespread controversy and dissatisfaction is being seen within the party. The list released by the All India Congress Committee (AICC) on August 16 includes 6 sitting MLAs, 11 former MLAs, 3 former ministers, 4 women, 12 OBCs, 10 Scheduled Tribes (ST), 8 Scheduled Castes (SC) and 3 minority leaders. The list includes some prominent names like former chief minister Digvijay Singh's son Jaivardhan Singh as district president of Guna, Mahesh Parmar as district president of Ujjain rural, and Siddharth Kushwaha as district president of Satna. However, these appointments have created resentment among workers and leaders in several districts.
