Ranchi, May 3: Prime Minister Narendra Modi today said that the relationship between BJP and Jharkhand is of the heart.
“If anyone understands and resolves the sentiments of the people of Jharkhand, it is only BJP,” he added.
Modi, who addressed an election rally at Tata College grounds and sought votes for Singhbhum candidate Geeta Koda and Khunti nominee Arjun Munda, said, ‘This love of yours, these blessings… this is the strength of Modi.’
Roadshow in Ranchi
After the election meeting in Chaibasa, PM Modi held a road show in Ranchi and sought votes for Sanjay Seth.

PM Modi said, “Our tribal brothers and sisters have the right over the water, forests and land of Jharkhand, but JMM and Congress… consider it their property. This is the reason why every resource of Jharkhand is being openly looted. The mines of the entire state are being looted through illegal mining.”
‘No one can take away ST-SC-OBC reservation‘
Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that Congress is eyeing to plunder the reservation of SC, ST, Tribal and OBC. “Congress is angry because tribals, Dalits, poor and OBCs support BJP. Congress wants to steal your reservation and give it to Muslims. They want to give reservations based on religion.‘
He told a cheering crowd, “No one can touch the Constitution. No one can snatch the reservation of Dalits, OBCs and tribals.”
Race of loot and corruption between Congress and JMM
Modi said there is a race going on between Congress and JMM for loot and corruption. “Rs 300 crore in cash was recovered from the hideout of a Congress MP here. Even machines had to be brought from banks to count the notes. After looting the lands of the tribals, they have also set their eyes on the land of our country’s army. Such a big land scam has been done by the JMM people. Congress and JMM together have hurt the honour and dignity of Jharkhand.”
Congress did not respect the sacrifice of tribals
PM Modi said the land of Singhbhum and Jharkhand is the land of tribal revolutionaries, but Congress never respected the sacrifice of the tribals. “Congress wants to give the entire credit of Independence to only one family, but it is BJP, which has given another identity to the birthday of Lord Birsa Munda.”
“We have started celebrating this day as Tribal Pride Day. We are building tribal museums across the country for tribal pride, but Congress does not like respecting the history of tribals. They do not want to allow the people of tribal society to move forward. However the Congress and the Indian alliance strongly opposed making a tribal woman (Draupadi Murmu) the President of India.
He said: ‘This is your son Modi sitting in Delhi, who knows your pain. That’s why I said – Be it a doctor, engineer or scientist… if he studies in his own language, he will also become a doctor, engineer and scientist.’
