Sameena Bi, a Muslim woman assaulted by kin over voting BJP in Madhya Pradesh polls, met Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan seeking safety. Accompanied by her two children, Bi said her brother-in-law Javed beat her up asking why she supported Chouhan's party. The CM assured protection saying Bi exercised her right constitutionally. "They will keep us safe so I can vote my choice," Bi stated, adding she backs BJP for Chouhan's welfare schemes. Though he led BJP to a second historic term in MP, Chouhan insists he's not in the CM race. Bi said she would vote BJP again considering Chouhan's concern over her plight after the attack.
