Ashutosh Tiwari Faces Ghanashyam Singh in Datiya Contest on July 30

The BJP has nominated Ashutosh Tiwari as its candidate for the Datiya assembly by‑election, while the Congress has put forward Ghanashyam Singh. Voters are scheduled to cast their ballots on July 30.

Both parties are intensifying their outreach as the campaign raths crisscross the district, delivering speeches that stress development, infrastructure upgrades, farmer support, and women’s empowerment. The BJP narrative focuses on the achievements of the Modi‑Yadav administration, portraying the opposition as an entity that has not addressed the constituency’s needs in the past two and a half years.

The upcoming vote is positioned by the BJP as a referendum on the state’s progress, with the party promising to continue its “double‑engine” model of growth for both the nation and Madhya Pradesh.
