Former state home minister Narottam Mishra now does duty as the convenor of the local BJP joining cell. It's a job that keeps him incredibly busy these days. On March 29, Kamlesh Shah, a threeterm Congress MLA from Amarwara, drove up to Chief Minister Mohan Yadav's residence in Bhopal and joined the BJP along with other members of his family, including wife Madhvi Shah, the president of the Harrai nagar panchayat in Chhindwara district. The welcome party included the CM, state BJP president V.D. Sharma and Mishra himself, who uttered a line that he could probably say in his sleep by now: that Shah had been "inspired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership".
