Sanawad (Madhya Pradesh): Local MLA Sachin Birla held a discussion with chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan for the upgradation and expansion of the Mirchi Mandi located in Baidia village of Segaon tehsil of Khargone district. Similarly, Birla also held detailed discussions with state minister of farmer welfare and agricultural development, Kamal Patel.
