The chief minister was visiting Amanganj Tehsil in Panna district on Sunday.

In cellphone photographs that were doing the rounds on social media, Chouhan, 57, is seen carried through ankle-deep water.

Sources in the government said the Chouhan was carried as there was water in the nullah and the collector and the local police chief decided that they could not risk the chief getting hurt or being bitten by snakes.
