Chhattisgarh State Guest House at Shankar Nagar in Raipur, ‘Pahuna’ has been made makeshift Chief Minister’s residence for Chief Minister elect Bhupesh Baghel while the security has been beefed up in and around it on Sunday.

Authorities say that it would take a week or more to keep the Civil Lines-located CM House ready for Baghel as the sprawling house needs some minor renovation.
