Ranchi: BJP state spokesperson Pratul Shahdeo made a major attack on the state government in the wake of the recent decision of the High Court and the Supreme Court. Pratul Shahdeo said that Chief Minister Hemant Soren has The High Court not only rejected the petition filed challenging the arrest but also termed the Chief Minister’s allegation of political vendetta as the last attempt of a losing client [WP (Cr) 68 /2024].
The High Court also said in its scathing comment that all the evidence collected by ED so far prima facie reveals Hemant Soren’s involvement in this scam. In its decision, the High Court also raised a big question on the recovery of Rs 36 lakh in the ED raid at Hemant Soren’s residence in Delhi.
The High Court said that it was the money deposited by Hemant Soren for the treatment of his parents. The argument for retention was considered untenable. Pratul said that in the same manner, the state government had challenged the order of CBI investigation in the illegal mining case of Lemon Pahad in Sahibganj.
During the hearing, the Supreme Court wanted to know why the state government is so eager to stop this investigation? Ultimately the state government’s petition was rejected and the CBI investigation will continue.
It is clear that the corruption that took place during the tenure of Hemant Soren, now the judicial view on that scam is also becoming strict and the court is keeping a close watch, Pratul said. The section of conspiracy was added to the FIR related to the land scam in the Sadar police station.
But the incident of erasing the section (120B) of this conspiracy by cutting it with a pen has also been taken very seriously by the High Court and Said that his time was during the tenure of Hemant Soren’s government. Pratul said that the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha government is stuck in the quagmire of all-round corruption and loot. Now the public will end the recognition of JMM.
Pratul said that the party did politics only on the basis of appeasement for four and a half years. During his tenure, people were jailed for writing ‘Hindu fruit shop’, general schools were converted into Urdu schools, an IAS officer kept calling himself a Muslim officer, a namaz place was made in the assembly without any demand, incidents of love jihad increased. Now she is accusing BJP of doing politics of hatred.
Pratul said that anyway, Jharkhand Mukti Morcha is going to lose its political existence after the Lok Sabha elections. Therefore, an attempt is being made to set a new narrative by making such baseless allegations. The people of Jharkhand cannot say that till now they have done the naked dance of minority appeasement for vote bank politics.
