Amidst the Madhya Pradesh government crisis, former Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister and senior BJP leader Shivraj Singh Chouhan today took to Twitter to let everyone know he has been around all the time.

Early this morning, Chouhan wished his ‘brothers and sisters’ and ‘nieces and nephews’ a very good morning. Quoting the tweet, The Hindu journalist Nistula Hebbar said, ‘#MamajiReturns?’. Chouhan has earned the monicker ‘mamaji’ (maternal uncle) from his supporters in Madhya Pradesh.
To that, Chouhan replied, ‘Nistula ji, main gaya hi kahan tha? (Nistula ji, when did I even leave?)’.
On Monday, senior Congress leader Jyotiraditya Scindia tendered his resignation along with 20 other Madhya Pradesh Congress MLAs. This led the MP state government on the verge of collapse. The BJP has maintained that should the Congress government in MP fall and should BJP come to power, Chouhan will be the Chief Minister.
