Friday, July 1, 2011, 15:00 [IST]

Rewa(MP), Jul 1: Former Madhya Pradesh Assembly Speaker Sriniwas Tiwari today (Jul 1) said that the Congress should analyse the reasons for its defeat in the Jabera bye-election.

"It won't help us if we are content saying that the BJP won because it is in power in Madhya Pradesh," he said in a statement. Tiwari said Jabera had traditionally been a Congress seat and losing there has some significance.

There is a need to strengthen the Congress organisation in the state so that it is prepared for the 2013 assembly elections in Madhya Pradesh, he said.
