10 BJP MPs elected as MLAs exit Parl as CM races hot up

BJP MPs resign as parliamentarians in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Chhattisgarh, creating vacancies at the Centre. Possible replacements for MP CM include Narendra Singh Tomar and Prahlad Singh Patel. In Rajasthan, there is speculation about Vasundhara Raje becoming CM for the third time. In Chhattisgarh, a fresh face, possibly from an OBC or tribal background, is expected to take the top slot. The MPs elected as MLAs may be given important responsibilities in executing welfare schemes and may also serve as deputy CMs or handle crucial departments.
