Ranchi, August 30 (HS). Union Agriculture Minister and Jharkhand's election in-charge Shivraj Singh Chauhan said that Champai Soren spent his life and youth for the creation of Jharkhand.

Shivraj said that Champai Soren is a leader who fought for Jharkhand all his life and served the people with devotion. To save Jharkhand, to protect the honor of mothers and sisters, he has decided to join the BJP. His arrival will definitely give strength and energy to the party. Such leaders Champai Soren and his colleagues are welcome and congratulated in the Bharatiya Janata Party. Chauhan was speaking at the Milan Samaroh program organized at Shaheed Maidan in Dhurva, Ranchi on Friday.
During this time, former Chief Minister Champai Soren took membership of BJP along with thousands of supporters. Shivraj Singh Chauhan, Himanta Biswa Sarma, Babulal Marandi gave them membership.
Champai espionage case will be accounted for when BJP comes to power: Himanta
Assam Chief Minister and Jharkhand election co-in-charge Himanta Biswa Sarma said that Jharkhand is one such state in the country where the Chief Minister himself puts spies on his ministers. The Hemant Soren government said that this was done for security reasons, so the question is why the security police did not have a gun in their hands. Champai Soren is the leader of the Jharkhand movement and has struggled with Shibu Soren. Spying on him is shameful.
Himanta said that Champai Soren is being spied upon for the last six months. I have proof of this. When the BJP government comes to power, all accounts of this spying case will be settled. IG Prabhat Kumar will also be held accountable for this. He said that the BJP has respected Champai Soren and will always respect him. Champai will work for the development and upliftment of Jharkhand along with Babulal Marandi and Arjun Munda.
BJP has given maximum respect and honour to tribals: Babulal
State President Babulal Marandi said that the way the Hemant government has worked in this state in four and a half years is not hidden from anyone. The Hemant government has proved to be a failure on every front. The people and MLAs of JMM are also feeling insulted in this government. When JMM MLAs are talked to, they say that they are feeling very insulted. They say that we have no existence left. In this government, brokers, middlemen and corrupt officers have power. These people are running the government. Hemant Soren is its kingpin.
Babulal said that Champai Soren deserves congratulations for joining BJP on time. Only BJP feels the pain of tribals and natives. Therefore, if anyone can do good to them, it is only BJP. Marandi said that Jharkhand resides in the heart of Modi and BJP. Tribals and natives of this place reside in the heart of BJP. If anyone can develop tribals, natives and Jharkhand, it is Bharatiya Janata Party. Now elections can be announced in Jharkhand anytime. All of you should go from here with a resolution that this anti-people government has to be uprooted and a new dawn has to be brought in Jharkhand by forming a government under the leadership of Bharatiya Janata Party.
There is no better platform than BJP to save the existence of tribal natives: Champai
Former Chief Minister Champai Soren, who joined BJP, said that the party which we nurtured along with Guruji, today the situation has become such that we had to take this step. The insult that was done to me, there was no such platform inside the party where we could have shared our pain. The central committee has not been formed for five years, no meeting is being held. Guruji is senior to us, he is unwell, after him there is no one.
Champai said that we decided not to harm the party we nurtured and we decided to go alone. Seeing the way the number of tribals is decreasing and their existence is in danger, I have decided to join the BJP. I have full faith in the BJP that we will be able to fight from this platform and will be successful in saving the existence of the tribals. Champai Soren said that I am a man of clean heart. Honesty and struggle are my political capital. I never thought that I would be spied upon.
During this time, state in-charge Laxmikant Vajpayee, Minister of State for Defence Sanjay Seth, Arjun Munda, Leader of Opposition Amar Kumar Bauri, Aditya Sahu, Deepak Prakash, Organization General Secretary Karamveer Singh, Sameer Oraon, Naveen Jaiswal, Madhu Koda, Geeta Koda, Sita Soren, Dineshanand Goswami and thousands of leaders and workers were present.
