Ranchi, April 27: State BJP President and former Chief Minister Babulal Marandi said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been working for the country’s development for the last 10 years.
“The work he did in these 10 years is in front of everyone. Be it village people, be it women, be it poor, be it labourers, be it youth. He worked for all classes,” he said while addressing a public meeting organised at Sosai Ashram in Mandar under the Lohardaga constituency.
“The country’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi says, Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas. This is not just a slogan. He has shown this by doing so,” Marandi maintained.
Ensure victory of Sameer Oraon: Marandi
Seeking votes for the NDA candidate from Lohardaga Sameer Oraon, Marandi said the JMM, Congress and Rashtriya Janata Dal are anti-Jharkhand and anti-development.
“The fight for a separate state of Jharkhand has continued since the country became independent. Jaipal Singh was fighting first. The Congress government also included Jaipal Singh in its party. It gave money but did not give a separate state of Jharkhand. Later, Shibu Soren was also given money to save the government, and when the CBI investigation was done, he was sent to Tihar jail. Congress party never respected the people of Jharkhand. If Congress had wanted, Jharkhand would have become a separate state long ago,” he maintained.
BJP created Jharkhand
“If Jharkhand has become a separate state, it is the contribution of NDA. After Atal Bihari Vajpayee came to power, Jharkhand became a separate state,” he recalled.
Huge displacement during Congress regime
“Most people from Jharkhand were displaced during the Congress rule. During the tenure of Congress, big factories were established in Jharkhand. Big mines opened. Due to this, people were also displaced. Congress should answer this,” he said.
“Everyone knows how many people were displaced during the ten years of the Modi government. Today, those people whose political shops are being closed in the country are spreading false propaganda. The answer to this has to be given by pressing the button on Kamal Chaap on May 13,” he said.
Marandi said goons and brokers sold land in Jharkhand by making fake documents. “This work was done under the patronage of Hemant Soren. Even the army land was not spared. This is why Hemant Soren has been arrested and imprisoned today,” he pointed out.
