The decimation of the Congress in the recent Assembly polls has prompted Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel to get into election mode early.
From inaugurating the renovated 8th century Shivrinarayan temple on Sunday to planning a door-to-door campaign for feedback on the Congress government flagship scheme of Rajiv Gandhi Nyay Yojana, Mr. Baghel is trying to be battle ready almost 18 months ahead of Assembly elections in the State
In fact, the feedback could come as early as April 16 when the results of a high profile byelection to the Khairagarh Assembly seat is declared.
