Why Jitu Patwari is on the back foot

India Today  

On December 16, 2023, the Congress had announced Jitendra ‘Jitu’ Patwari as their new Madhya Pradesh state president, signalling a generational change as he replaced veteran Kamal Nath. Nath has been keeping away from state politics while other senior leaders like Ajay Singh and Laxman Singh have been vocal about the “lack of bal­ance” in the 335-member state executive announced in late Octo­ber. Under Patwari’s watch, the party drew a blank in the general election with his hand-picked candidate in Indore, Akshay Bam, defecting to the BJP in the middle of electioneering. Later, in the first post-LS election bypoll in Amarwara, the BJP won, denting Nath’s fortress in Chhindwara and doing nothing positive for Patwari.
