Bhopal: The plaque at a railway overbridge in Bhopal bearing the name of former Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan was found defaced on Friday, triggering a protest by the BJP. The main opposition party alleged the defacement was the handiwork of Congress workers, a charge denied by the ruling party.
Unidentified persons threw paint over Chouhan's name on the plaque at the Vir Savarkar Railway Overbridge, which was dedicated to the public in April 2016 when he was chief minister, police said, citing a complaint filed by the BJP. BJP activists staged a protest at the bridge alleging Congress workers were involved in the act of defacement. "I submitted a complaint in the Habibganj Police Station after the protest at Savarkar Bridge. We have also cleaned the plaque. We don't believe in this kind of politics," said Surendra Nath Singh, Bhopal district unit BJP president.
