It seems that the ‘pawri ho rahi hai’ viral trend that originated from Pakistan has not left any sector untouched, be it individual or political space. After Trinamool Congress and BJP President JP Nadda gave their personal twist to the meme, the ‘pawri’ fever has created its way to Madhya Pradesh with Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan joining the list. Addressing a gathering yesterday, Chouhan stated, “Ye mai hun, ye meri sarkar hai, ye meri prashasnik team hai aur aap dekho ki bhumafia bhaag rahe hai” – loosely translated as – “This is me, this is my government, this is my administrative team, and you see land mafias are running away.”

The Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister yesterday stated that the BJP government will implement the Indore model of crackdown against the land mafia across the whole state.
Addressing the beneficiaries of 1000 housing societies, who will get back their land squatted by the land mafias of the state, Chouhan reiterated his old ‘Tiger Abhi Zinda Hai’ remark borrowed from Salman Khan’s 2017 film Tiger Zinda Hai, to drive residence his point. He stated that ‘Tiger’ is alive and is hunting for its prey like the land mafia, drug mafia, chit fund providers and these troubling the females and girls in the state.

Notably, the land grab by mafias has been a essential challenge in the state and opposition Congress has been attacking the Shivraj Singh Chouhan-led BJP government alleging political protection to the land mafias.
A couple of weeks ago, Shivraj Singh Chouhan had signalled a crackdown against mafias in the state. Chouhan had stated that the BJP government in the state will not spare the mafia and will bury them 10 feet beneath the ground.
