Mool Singh

Mool Singh (also spelled Mul Singh) is an Indian politician who was elected as a member of legislative assembly on Indian National Congress[1] party symbol to the Madhya Pradesh Vidhan Sabha in 2008 from the Raghogarh constituency. He is a cousin of Digvijay Singh, a former Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh and of Lakshman Singh, Digvijay's brother.[2]

In June 2013, Singh announced that he would be stepping down from the seat at the next elections, paving the way for Digvijay Singh's son, Jaivardhan Singh. Mool Singh cited poor health for his decision.[3] The constituency has previously been held by Digvijay, Lakshman and by their father, Balbhadra Singh.[4][5]
