Deoghar (Jharkhand) [India], November 4 (ANI): Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Nishikant Dubey on Monday accused the Hemant Soren government of promoting Bangladeshi intrusion in Jharkhand for vote bank politics. He warned that “tribals would cease to exist” “If people don’t wake up now.”
Speaking to ANI, Dubey said, “There is Bangladeshi intrusion everywhere and Hemant Soren Government is promoting it out of vote bank politics. If we don’t wake up now, tribals would cease to exist.”
Yesterday, BJP Jharkhand co-in-charge and Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma hit out at Soren’s party the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM), accusing them of supporting “infiltrators” in the state and calling for the cancellation of registrations of parties who support them.
“The opposition has filed a complaint against me for speaking against infiltrators. This means JMM is speaking in favour of them. Whichever political party supports infiltrators and speaks against those opposing infiltration, their registration should be cancelled,” he said yesterday.
In another big development, Mandal Murmu, the proposer who signed on Hemant Soren’s nomination for the Barhait Assembly constituency, joined the Bharatiya Janata Party yesterday.
After joining the party Mandal Murmu said that he would take initiative regarding the demographic change in Santhal Pargana.
Speaking to reporters Murmu said, “First of all, I bow before my ancestors…Sidhu-Kanhu, Phulo Jhano sacrificed themselves for this nation…I belong to that family. We will take the initiative regarding the demography in Santhal Pargana.”
The Jharkhand Assembly elections will be held in two phases on November 13 and 20, with vote counting scheduled for November 23.
A total of 2.6 crore voters are eligible to participate, including 1.31 crore male and 1.29 crore female voters, as well as 11.84 lakh first-time voters and 66.84 lakh young voters.
