Congress General Secretary Digvijaya Singh's son Jaivardhan Singh on Friday marked his entry into politics by filing nomination papers for Madhya Pradesh Assembly elections from Raghogarh constituency.

Jaivardhan Singh along with his father and other family members, filed his nomination papers at Raghogarh, 47 km from Guna. Jaivardhan came in a convoy of over 150 vehicles but apart from him, only four persons including a lawyer were allowed entry inside the Collectorate for nomination filing.

Excerpts from Jaivardhan Singh's humble interview in the Sunday Standard on Oct 23, 2013...speaks volumes about his simplicty and the values...

Will you be contesting this election as political heir of your father Digvijay Singh?

It remains to be seen whether I get the ticket from Raghogarh. If I do, I will be contesting from the seat, which my grand-father and father have represented, so it would be a great honour.

What is your strength? Is it your relation with a famous family or your education?

My biggest strengths are the people of Raghogarh and my family. My family is responsible for teaching me strong values and ethics backed by giving me the best education possible at Doon, Shri Ram College of Commerce and Columbia University.

Your father recently said he considers himself a ‘setting sun’. Do you agree?

For me he is forever shining.

In whose name will you ask for votes? Your father or Rahul and Sonia Gandhi?

In the name of the Congress Party under the leadership of Soniaji, Rahulji and with the blessings of my father.

What are the strengths and weaknesses of the Congress in Madhya Pradesh?

Congress has a very strong and charismatic leadership in MP. If all the leaders work together, we will form the government.
