Dhanbad, July 9: BJP state president and former chief minister Babulal Marandi said that the government of the INDIA bloc in Jharkhand has lost the mandate of people in the state as people showed them the mirror in the Lok Sabha election.
Marandi who was addressing BJP workers’ felicitation ceremony in New Town Hall here on Tuesday afternoon said that in fact people of Jharkhand gave the mandate in favour of BJP as his party won nine out of 14 Lok Sabha seats of Jharkhand in the recent elections.
The former chief minister said that development work in Jharkhand has completely stopped and ‘Thug and Lutera’ are ruling the roost in the state. Minerals are being stolen on a large scale. “So the time has come to see them off this unholy coalition government”, he said.
Babulal Marandi said that development and construction work in Jharkhand has completely stopped. Sand mining is banned in Jharkhand but it is being done and illegally sent to neighbouring states Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. But there is no action on this.

“If sand mining is permitted revenue will come to the exchequer of the state government. But the matter is that through illegal mining money directly goes into the treasury of Hemant Soren”, said Marandi.
He said the INDIA bloc spread a lie during the Lok Sabha elections that the BJP would change the Constitution of India to remove reservations, notwithstanding Narendra Modi formed the third consecutive term of government which is a record.
Marandi said the Jharkhand INDIA bloc government has failed on all fronts. It had promised to give jobs to 5 lakh youth but not a single job has been given so far.
Dhanbad MP Dhulu Mahto, former MP PN Singh, MLA Raj Sinha, former district president Chandrashekhar Singh, former mayor Chandrashekhar Agrawal, senior leaders Sanjay Jha and Manas Prasun were also present in the event.
