Minister Chouhan returns follow vehicle

Aalirajpur: Madhya Pradesh Scheduled Caste Welfare Minister Nagar Singh Chouhan has returned the following vehicle provided for his security, citing PM Narendra Modi's appeal for fuel conservation.

From May 14 onwards, the following vehicles will no longer be used during the minister's local programmes in Aalirajpur district.

In a letter to the Aalirajpur Collector and SP, Chouhan directed officials to withdraw the vehicle assigned for security purposes.

MLA representative Govinda Gupta said the government had provided the following vehicle as part of the minister's security arrangement. He added that local police vehicles also accompany the minister during district visits.

Gupta said the decision was taken in view of the PM’s call to save diesel and petrol amid the ongoing Iran-US tensions. He said the initiative was aimed at preventing unnecessary expenditure and promoting fuel conservation.

Several BJP leaders and party workers, including MP Anita Chouhan and district president Maku Parwal, welcomed the minister's decision and described it as a message of simplicity and accountability.
