As Madhya Pradesh gears up for another round of Assembly elections, the influence of wealth on politics takes center stage. According to a recent report by the Association for Democratic Reforms (ADR), a staggering 80 percent of Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) in Madhya Pradesh are crorepatis, and more than half of them hail from the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).

As the political landscape unfolds, the battle for supremacy intensifies between the incumbent BJP, rallying behind Shivraj Singh Chouhan, and the opposition Congress, led by the prominent figure of former Chief Minister Kamal Nath. Amidst this political fervor, let’s delve into how the richest candidates fared in the last Assembly elections held in 2018.

At the forefront is Sanjay Satyendra Pathak from the BJP, representing Vijayraghavgarh. With a staggering net worth exceeding Rs 226 crore, Pathak emerged victorious in 2018, securing a comfortable margin of 13,738 votes against Congress’s Padma Shukla.

Following closely is Chetanya Kasyap, another BJP stalwart, holding the Ratlam City constituency. Boasting a considerable net worth of Rs 204 crore, Kasyap clinched a hattrick win for the saffron party in 2018, defeating Congress’s Premlata Dave by a significant margin of 43,435 votes.

Representing the Congress camp, Sanjay Shukla from Indore-1 shines as the wealthiest candidate. With a substantial net asset value of Rs 139 crore, Shukla secured victory in the 2018 polls, overcoming BJP’s Sudarshan Gupta with a margin of 8,136 votes.

As the 2023 elections loom, political analysts predict a favorable position for the BJP. However, Congress remains resilient, eager to make a comeback following the collapse of the Kamal Nath-led government in 2020. The intersection of wealth and politics in Madhya Pradesh continues to shape the dynamics of the upcoming electoral battle, where financial prowess and political influence go hand in hand.

This Floating Church will leave you in awe of its beauty

Shettihalli Church, a 163-year-old Gothic masterpiece, also called as a Floating Church gracefully submerges in the backwaters of Hemavathi Dam, Karnataka, during monsoons only to rise again in summers revealing its architectural splendour.

The church remains a masterpiece in many ways. It is built on the banks of Hemavathi river in Shettihalli village of Hassan district (about a half hour from Bengaluru International Airport), and is the forgotten testament of the village’s past. A classic example of Gothic architecture, it is purported to have been constructed in 1860 by a French missionary named Abbe J A Dubois. The materials which were used in its construction were the ordinary brick and mortar, along with glass brought from Belgium, Egyptian gypsum, jaggery and eggshells.

Meanwhile times changed as the Gorur-Hemavathi dam was constructed over the river 1960 which uprooted all villages surrounding the area of the church. Since then, the land floods with water and enters the surviving skeletal frame of the building every year during peak monsoon (from June to October). Despite this, the church stands with about one-third of its structure above the water’s surface hence acquiring its name like ‘Floating Church’ and ‘Submerged Church’.
