Tiwari addressed the workers, saying that the guidance of Narottam Mishra had boosted his confidence during emotional moments. He added that every party worker is a family member to him and that the party will register a historic victory in the Datia by-election based on the workers' efforts.

Former Chief Minister Uma Bharti praised Narottam Mishra's decision to accompany Ashutosh Tiwari during the filing of his nomination papers. She called it an exemplary gesture.

The Datia by-election has gained significant attention, with BJP leaders galvanising their cadre to ensure a victory. The nomination filing on Monday will mark a crucial step in the election process.

The by-election is being closely watched, and the BJP's efforts to secure a win are underway. With Mishra's support, Tiwari's campaign is expected to gain momentum.

The outcome of the Datia by-election will have implications for the political landscape of Madhya Pradesh. The election results will be closely watched by political analysts and parties alike.

In conclusion, the Datia by-election has become a significant event in Madhya Pradesh's political calendar. With the nomination filing on Monday, the election process is set to gain pace.
