"I appeal to workers of the state and Chhindwara to work laboriously and honestly as the time is less," Nath, a former chief minister of MP, said.
Take the work carried out by the Congress for the country, state and Chhindwara, and put forth the promise of the party in crystal clear words with enthusiasm across to the people, he added.
"Our collective and organized strength will pull off a spectacular victory in the elections," the former Union Minister added.
Chhindwara, which has been represented in the Lok Sabha by Nath nine times and is currently held by his son Nakul Nath, will go to the polls on April 19 on the first phase.
Nakul Nath has been renominated by the Congress and will face the BJP's Vivek Sahu.
