00:00 A new era began in Madhya Pradesh as Mohan Yadav took oath as the state's new chief
00:29 minister on Wednesday marking the end of BJP veteran Shivraj Singh Chauhan's nearly
00:33 two-decade rule.
00:34 Governor Mangubhai Patel oversaw the swearing-in of Yadav along with Jagdish Devda, a Dalit,
00:39 and Rajendra Shukla, a Brahmin from the Vindhya region, as deputy CMs.
00:43 The significant BJP event was graced by top leaders including Prime Minister Narendra
00:46 Modi with a massive gathering at Bhopal's Lal Parade ground.
00:49 The swearing-in ceremony drew a large crowd attended by Home Minister Amit Shah, BJP President
00:53 JP Nadda and chief ministers from 11 BJP-ruled states.
00:56 Yadav's hometown Ujjain also saw a substantial presence of BJP workers at the event.
01:01 Earlier, Yadav, victor of the Ujjain south seat, expressed his intent to govern the state
01:05 following the path laid by PM Modi.
01:07 "Madhya Pradesh will align itself with the principles guiding Prime Minister Narendra
01:10 Modi's leadership.
01:11 Hailing from the land of King Vikramaditya, I am dedicated to the state's progress and
01:15 the fulfilment of millions of Madhya Pradesh citizens' aspirations.
01:20 We aim to establish the same robust governance that thrived during King Vikramaditya's reign,"
01:25 quoted Yadav.
01:26 Mohan Yadav, an OBC representative, emerged as the unexpected choice by the BJP to steer
01:30 the state, denying Chauhan a fifth term.
01:33 OBCs constitute nearly 48 per cent of Madhya Pradesh's populace.
01:36 A businessman turned politician, Yadav won the Ujjain south seat consecutively in the
01:40 2013, 2018 and 2023 polls, serving as the higher education minister in the prior Shivraj
01:46 Singh Chauhan administration.
01:48 Possessing a master's degree in political science from Vikram University, Yadav completed
01:52 his PhD from the same institution in 2009.
01:54 His appointment as CM signalled BJP's outreach towards the dominant Yadav community in UP
01:58 and Bihar ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha election, considering the community's sizeable presence
02:03 of 10-14 per cent in these states.
02:05 BJP, riding on PM Modi's popularity and defying anti-incumbency, clinched 163 out
02:10 of the 230 assembly seats in Madhya Pradesh.
02:13 The Congress, previously in power briefly in 2018, dwindled to a mere 66 seats.
02:17 The party's leadership has been a key driver of the BJP's rise to power.
