The state Congress president said the maximum number of crimes have taken place under the current dispensation.
Madhya Pradesh Congress president Kamal Nath today said the state had become apradh pradesh (crime state) in the 18-year rule of Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan.
Assembly polls are scheduled to be held in the state at the end of the year.
"Madhya Pradesh has turned into a scam state and apradh pradesh. These are not my figures (related to crime) but those available on the internet. The maximum number of crimes took place under the current dispensation. The Chief Minister is unable to give a record of his 18-year-old government," Nath told reporters at Pati in tribal-dominated Barwani district.
"Now, after 18 years and just five months before polls, he (Chouhan) has started remembering behne (sisters), employees, contractual staff, farmers to divert people's attention from the truth," Nath said in a swipe at the state government's Ladli Behna Yojana and some other populist announcements.
