Union agriculture minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Monday launched his website to receive public complaints and feedback from the public, saying the move was aimed at strengthening his connection with people in Madhya Pradesh and elsewhere.

“The website will function like Mama Ka Ghar only (uncle’s home)- an open and warm place for everyone. Now communication will be easier. People from MP and other parts of India can connect with me directly through the website,” the minister said.
This is Chouhan’s second major outreach after his term as Madhya Pradesh chief minister ended in December 2023. The minister had previously named his official residence in Bhopal as ‘Mama Ka Ghar’ to underline his close relations with the people.
In his message on the occasion, Chouhan said the website would have information about departmental schemes and photos of his meetings.
Shivraj said, “On the website, you will find important information about my personal life, my political journey, and more. Along with the story of Madhya Pradesh’s transformation from ‘sick to developed,’ you will also learn about the key schemes of the Agriculture and Rural Development Department. Whether you want to give suggestions, plant trees with me, or receive important information and videos through the website, contacting me will become even easier. Just one click is all it takes, and I’ll connect with you.”
I have spent over a decade chronicling Madhya Pradesh’s political and social landscape, covering politics, investigative journalism, crime, human interest, and government policy, blending sharp insight with ground‑level depth. I have closely tracked three assembly elections, three Lok Sabha elections, leadership transitions in MP while exposing governance lapses, tender irregularities, and flawed policy rollouts. My reports have revealed gaps in the Cheetah project, irregularities in medical education, rigging in recruitment exams, and loopholes in policy implementation. In crime reporting, I have moved beyond FIRs to map systemic patterns — from organised crime networks and gender‑based violence to custodial accountability — balancing urgency with sensitivity. My journalism is defined by a commitment to human interest. I have profiled the marginalised Bancchda community, documented atrocities against tribal groups, and highlighted efforts to preserve their culture through heritage liquor and revival of spiritual practices. I have reported on farmers struggling with failed MSP promises, giving voice to those often reduced to statistics in policy files. Passionate about field reporting, I have reported on rampant sand mining in Chambal and Narmada, pharmaceutical companies supplying medicines under altered names, the dire condition of schools and colleges, the plight of commercial sex workers, and skewed sex ratios in specific districts. Beyond deadlines, and as HT’s state correspondent and assistant editor in Madhya Pradesh, I engage with ministers, farmers, students, and activists, believing the best policy stories begin with a single human voice. A postgraduate in Journalism and Mass Communication, I also hold a diploma in sports journalism.
