==Overview==
Raghogarh (constituency number 31) is one of the four Vidhan Sabha constituencies located in [[Guna district]]. This constituency covers parts of Raghogarh and Aron [[tehsil]]s.<ref name="ceo">{{cite web|url=http://eci.nic.in/eci_main/CurrentElections/CONSOLIDATED_ORDER%20_ECI%20.pdf|title=Delimitation of Parliamentary and Assembly Constituencies Order, 2008|publisher=The Election Commission of India|pages=226, 250}}</ref>

It has frequently been held by members of one family. In June 2013, [[Mool Singh]], a cousin of [[Digvijay Singh (politician)|Digvijay Singh]], announced that he would be stepping down from the seat at the next elections, paving the way for Digvijay's son, [[Jaivardhan Singh|Jaivardhan]], to be elected in a form of dynastic succession that is common in North India but rare in the South. Mool Singh had suffered a [[stroke]] three years previously and gave poor health as the reason for his decision.<ref>{{cite news |publisher=The Hindu |title=Another ‘son rise’ in political firmament |first=Pheroze L. |last=Vincent |date=23 June 2013 |url=http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/other-states/another-son-rise-in-political-firmament/article4841319.ece |access-date=5 August 2013}}</ref> The constituency has previously been held by Digvijay, his brother [[Lakshman Singh (politician)|Lakshman Singh]] and by their father, [[Balbhadra Singh (politician)|Balbhadra Singh]].<ref>{{cite news |publisher=Outlook |url=http://www.outlookindia.com/article.aspx?240313 |access-date=16 July 2013 |title=Tornapartism: Families divided by party colours talk about living under one roof |first=Debarshi |last=Dasgupta |date=27 April 2009}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.rediff.com/news/1998/feb/05mp.htm |title=Madhya Pradesh CM Digvijay Singh's proxy war |publisher=Rediff.com |date=5 February 1998 |access-date=20 March 2013}}</ref> It was noted in 2003 that the seat has been held by members of the family or their anointed candidates since 1977 and that the main opposition party, the [[Bharatiya Janata Party]], had lost its deposit on all but one occasion in the subsequent five elections up to that date. The candidates who had stood against the family candidate in the first elections from the constituency in 1952 had also lost their deposits.<ref>{{cite news |publisher=Hindustan Times |agency=PTI |title=Raghogarh |date=13 October 2003 |url=http://www.hindustantimes.com/News-Feed/NM2/Raghogarh/Article1-9607.aspx |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130807155518/http://www.hindustantimes.com/News-Feed/NM2/Raghogarh/Article1-9607.aspx |url-status=dead |archive-date=August 7, 2013 |access-date=7 August 2013}}</ref>
