Hemant Soren:- Outgoing Chief Minister of Jharkhand Hemant Soren made very serious allegations against Raj Bhavan and central government agencies in the state assembly on Monday. He said that my arrest on the night of January 31 is a dark chapter of democracy. This has been carried out as part of a well-planned conspiracy and Raj Bhavan is also involved in this conspiracy. During the debate on the trust vote motion presented in the House by Chief Minister Champai Soren, Hemant Soren said that they have arrested me on the charges of scam of eight and a half acres of land, but I challenge that if he presents even a single paper related to this. If it is done, I will retire from politics. Without naming anyone, Hemant said that these people have been torturing tribals, Dalits and minorities for years and my arrest on January 31 is also a part of such atrocities.
These people want the tribals to go and live in the forests like 50-100 years ago. He said that these people may put me behind bars, but we are not going to accept defeat. They do not know that this is Jharkhand and countless tribals here have always fought against exploitation and atrocities. These are the people who are conspiring against us, who have not worn Gandhi cap till date. Without taking the name of the Central Government, he said that his associates and friends spent Rs. 12-14 lakh crores and went to foreign countries, but they could not even save their money.
Hemant Soren said, “I will not shed tears, because tears have no value for you. When the time comes, I will give a befitting reply to each of their questions and conspiracies. Alleging misuse of agencies like ED, CBI, IT, Hemant Soren said that they never want any tribal to complete the five-year term as Chief Minister of Jharkhand. Forget me, even in his party he did not allow any tribal Chief Minister to complete his five-year term. (IANS)
