There are 29 Lok Sabha seats in the state, out of which Congress announced its candidates for 10 seats on Tuesday. The biggest name in the list is that of Nakul Nath, son of former Chief Minister Kamal Nath and MP from Chhindwara. At the same time, three MLAs have also been made candidates. Among these, MLA from Satna Siddharth Kushwaha has been made the candidate from Satna, MLA from Bhander Assembly Phool Singh Baraiya from Bhind and MLA from Dindori Omkar Singh Markam has been made the candidate from Mandla Lok Sabha constituency.

Markam, who has been made the Congress candidate from Mandla, is a third-time MLA. He has won the last assembly elections from Dindori. BJP has made Union Minister Faggan Singh Kulaste its candidate from this seat. Similarly, Siddharth Kushwaha has been fielded from Satna Lok Sabha constituency.
