Three cities. One lakh people each. And a condemnation resolution that sets the political temperature before the rallies even begin. Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav on Monday, 26 October 2026, detailed a wide-ranging BJP Madhya Pradesh Core Group meeting that charted the party's agenda across politics, Rajya Sabha candidate selection, tribal commemoration, and rural welfare — all in one sitting.

Kharge Remark Draws Formal Censure From the Core Group

The meeting, chaired by state BJP president Hemant Khandelwal and attended by Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan, Deputy Chief Ministers Jagdish Devda and Rajendra Shukla, and state ministers, opened on a combative note. A formal condemnation resolution was passed against Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge over what the party described as an 'ashobhaniya tippani' — an 'unseemly remark' — directed at Prime Minister Narendra Modi's late father.

National General Secretary and state in-charge Biplab Kumar Deb and National Vice-President and co-in-charge Rekha Verma were also present, signalling the central leadership's direct involvement in state-level planning. Passing a formal resolution in a core committee meeting, rather than leaving it to press statements, is a deliberate escalation — it becomes part of the party record and a mobilisation cue for the ranks.

'Loktantra Bachao, Arajkata Hatao' — A Three-City, Three-Lakh Rally Blitz

The most operationally significant agenda item: massive public rallies under the 'Loktantra Bachao, Arajkata Hatao' ('Save Democracy, Remove Anarchy') campaign. The schedule — Indore on 30 October, Jabalpur on 31 October, and Bhopal on 3 November — targets a combined footfall of three lakh people, with each city expected to draw one lakh attendees. Similar rallies are planned at other district headquarters across the state.

The campaign title is pointed: it frames the opposition not just as wrong, but as a threat to democratic order itself. Launching three major city rallies in rapid succession in under a week signals that the BJP intends to dominate the public square heading into November.

Rajya Sabha Seat, Birsa Munda Jayanti, and UCC on the Agenda

The meeting also addressed candidate selection for one vacant Rajya Sabha seat from Madhya Pradesh — a decision that will be watched closely given its implications for the party's parliamentary arithmetic. No candidate was publicly named from the meeting.

The core group resolved to celebrate Birsa Munda's birth anniversary on 15 November — observed nationally as Janjatiya Gaurav Divas since the central government institutionalised the commemoration in 2021 — on a 'wide scale' across the state. The party also expressed 'satisfaction' ('prasannata') at progress toward implementing the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) in Madhya Pradesh, a long-standing BJP manifesto commitment now inching toward state-level rollout.

Svamitva Yojana Push: Free Property Registration for Rural Families

On the governance side, the meeting reviewed a drive under the Svamitva Yojana to enable free registration of homes and plots for rural families. Launched nationally in 2020, the Central scheme uses drone surveys to map village property and issue formal 'property cards' — giving millions of rural households legal title to land for the first time. The core group also discussed better coordination with Members of Parliament to maximise the state's share of Central government scheme benefits.

A single meeting that spans a censure motion, a Rajya Sabha selection, three mega-rallies, a tribal commemoration, a constitutional reform milestone, and a flagship welfare scheme is either exhaustively productive — or a sign that the BJP in Madhya Pradesh is in full political-activation mode ahead of a defining November.
