BJP to take up Chouhan issue after EC action

Jabalpur, Apr 26: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will mull over the office-of-profit issue involving Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan only after the Election Commission's action on the matter, senior party leader L K Advani said here today.

His comment came in response to a media query regarding complaints against Mr Chouhan, who is also Vidisha MP, for allegedly occupying more than one office of profit.

Similar complaints were under scrutiny against Lok Sabha Speaker Somnath Chatterjee and Chief Ministers of Chhattisgarh, Punjab and Arunachal Pradesh besides several Union Ministers.
