Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Thursday lashed out at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, and said that he feels pity for the leadership of Congress.

"Rahul Gandhi is talking abroad because nobody listens to him in this country. He spoke such childish things that bowed the country's head in shame. He is crying like a child there, complaining that he is not allowed to do this and that. Whatever you want to say, say it among the people of the country," Chouhan said.

"When I went abroad before 2014, I was asked that the then Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh is an underachiever. And my answer to that question was that the Prime Minister of India can never be an underachiever, he is the Prime Minister of India, not of the Congress," he said.

"Now, crying like this shows the defeated, desperate and hopeless mentality of the Congress leadership. I feel pity," he said.

CM Chouhan also slammed former CM and Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) Chief Kamal Nath and said, "In the last election too, Nath was depend on lies, he did not fulfil his promise and now again his campaign to make a new promise letter is going on. But what happened to the previous promissory notes?

"I am asking again today Kamal Nath ji, you had promised that you would make a provision of an overall 40 percent budget for women in the MP budget, what did you do? I am again saying that you had stopped Rs 1000 per month which we used to give to poor sisters of Baiga, Bharia, Sahariya community. What happened to your promise?" Chouhan said. -- ANI
