Bhopal, Nov 6 (IANS): Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan and Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav will on Wednesday campaign for BJP's candidate Ramakant Bhargava for the Budhni bypoll.

Through massive public rallies, they will seek support for Bhargava. Both leaders are scheduled to address back-to-back rallies at different locations.

The BJP returned to power with 163 MLAs elected to the state Assembly and Mohan Yadav was chosen as the Chief Minister.

Rawat, who resigned from the Congress and the state Assembly, and joined the BJP got a cabinet post in the Mohan Yadav cabinet.

The opposition Congress will also campaign in Vijaypur on Wednesday.
