Before this, he had won the lok sabha elections for the last time in 2014. After becoming the chief minister of madhya pradesh in 2018, kamal nath contested the assembly by-election for the first time and after winning, started politics from bhopal instead of Delhi. Even in the 2023 assembly elections, kamal nath has decided to remain active in the politics of madhya pradesh by getting elected from Chhindwara assembly seat for the second time.

'BJP can field a big name in the electoral battle'

By the way, kamal nath has been elected mp from Chhindwara 9 times, while his wife Alka Nath has won once and his son nakul Nath has won from here once. kamal nath was mp from Chhindwara in his first term from 1980 to 1996 and in his second term from 1998 to 2018. There is discussion that to conquer Kamal Nath's stronghold Chhindwara, bjp may again play the trick of 1998, when it had fielded former chief minister Sunderlal Patwa from here and allowed kamal nath to defeat him. Although, the party has not yet announced the name of nakul Nath from Chhindwara, but kamal nath has indicated that only his son (Nakul Nath) will contest the elections. It is believed that this time bjp is working on a big plan to corner mp Nakulnath. bjp will surprise everyone at the last moment by making a big face its candidate.
