MP’s Dhar BJP Rift Widens As MLA Kalu Singh Thakur Announces Hunger Strike Against Union Minister Savitri Thakur

The rift within the Dhar district unit of the BJP has deepened following the announcement of an indefinite hunger strike by BJP MLA Kalu Singh Thakur. The strike, which began on October 9, is aimed at addressing public grievances in Dhamnod and issues related to the municipal council. The conflict arose from a public confrontation between MLA Kalu Singh Thakur and Union Minister Savitri Thakur, with the MLA accusing the minister of stalling local development projects and preventing the transfer of the Dhamnod chief municipal officer (CMO).

Union Minister Savitri Thakur rejected the allegations, stating that development projects are actively being implemented under the central government and that she has no role in the transfer or court proceedings concerning the civic official. MLA Kalu Singh Thakur has threatened to sit on a protest outside the Union minister's residence if the situation remains unresolved.

The opposition leader, Umang Singhar, further criticized the minister, stating that there is a lack of communication and accountability within the Madhya Pradesh government.
