Prime Minister Narendra Modi chaired a Sunday meeting with Madhya Pradesh BJP leaders, including MPs and MLAs at Kushabhau Thakre auditorium in Bhopal.
It came after Prime Minister Modi arrived in Bhopal from Bageshwar Dham in Chhatarpur district after performing ‘Bhoomi pujan’ for a cancer hospital.
The Prime Minister was received at the Raja Bhoj airport by Chief Minister Mohan Yadav and Madhya Pradesh BJP Chief V.D. Sharma.
During a two-hour-long meeting, Prime Minister Modi interacted with Madhya Pradesh BJP leaders and asked some surprising questions related to Kushabhau Thakre and work reports on a particular scheme in a particular constituency, etc.
Joined by Chief Minister Mohan Yadav and his two deputies — Rajendra Shukla and Jagdish Devda — along with State BJP Chief V.D. Sharam on stage, Prime Minister Modi also discussed the Global Investment Summit.
After the meeting concluded, Deputy CM Rajendra Shukla said, “Today, a meeting of Madhya Pradesh BJP MPs, and MLAs was chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Earlier in the day, the Prime Minister was accorded a warm welcome at Raj Bhavan by Governor Mangubhai Patel and CM Mohan Yadav.
“This is the first time that a Prime Minister will stay for a night at Raj Bhavan in Bhopal. The first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru also visited Raj Bhavan during his Bhopal visit but he spent the night at a private place.
