Jul 07, 2024
Ranchi (Jharkhand) [India], July 7 : Ahead of the floor test of the Jharkhand government, Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) leader and LoP of the Jharkhand Legislative Assembly, Amar Kumar Bauri on Sunday said that the "biggest corrupt" government (JMM government) has returned to hide their corruption.
Earlier today, BJP MLAs held a meeting in Ranchi, ahead of the floor test of Jharkhand's Hemant Soren government tomorrow.
"The biggest corrupt govt has returned and they have returned for their own benefit. They have returned to hide their corruption...they have no interest in the welfare of the people...we are challenging them to have a debate...we will tell how corrupt and selfish they are," Amar Kumar Bauri told ANI.
The new government in Jharkhand, led by Chief Minister Hemant Soren who took the oath of office for the third time on July 4, is likely to expand his cabinet after proving his majority in the special session of the Jharkhand Legislative Assembly on Monday.
The cabinet expansion of the new government in Jharkhand will take place on Monday.
Hemant Soren was sworn in as the 13th Chief Minister of Jharkhand in Raj Bhavan, Ranchi on July 4.
Hemant Soren was granted bail by the Jharkhand High Court on June 28 after spending five months in jail.
Champai Soren resigned from the post just five months after taking the oath, setting the ball rolling for Hemant Soren to again take over the role on Wednesday.
Champai Soren took oath as the 12th Chief Minister of Jharkhand in the Raj Bhavan on February 2 this year.
Hemant Soren was released from the Birsa Munda Jail on June 28 after nearly five months following bail from Jharkhand High Court in a money laundering case linked to an alleged land scam. He had resigned as Chief Minister before his arrest on January 31.
He was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in January on charges related to an alleged land scam and money laundering.
Earlier on December 29, Hemant Soren took the oath as Chief Minister of Jharkhand as the 11th Chief Minister of Jharkhand.
Hemant Soren's return as CM will bolster the JMM, which won three seats in the tribal-dominated state of Jharkhand in the Lok Sabha elections.
In 2019, JMM fought the assembly elections in alliance with the Congress and Lalu Prasad's Rashtriya Janta Dal (RJD) and got a comfortable majority with forty-seven seats in the 81-member house.
