Security Tightened at Chouhan's Residences
Security around Shivraj Singh Chouhan's homes in Bhopal and Delhi was increased on Friday.
This is because there were reports that a spy group from Pakistan might be planning something.
More police and barriers were put up to keep him safe.
Chouhan already has very high-level security, called Z+ category, which includes special guards and bulletproof cars.
Some people think this is just a regular check, while others believe it shows he might get a bigger job in politics.
A leader from the Congress party said the government thinks the state's security is not good enough.
