Digvijaya says he would have preferred Rajgarh seat

Indore| Reacting to the announcement of his candidature for the Bhopal Lok Sabha seat, Congress veteran Digvijaya Singh said Saturday that his first choice was Rajgarh, but he accepted the party’s decision.

Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Kamal Nath stated earlier in the day that Singh will contest from Bhopal, a BJP stronghold for the last three decades.

Speaking to reporters here, Singh said, “Rajgarh was naturally my priority as it is my home. But I am ready to contest from any place as decided by my party and the Congress president.”
