Today is of very emotional and historical importance in the political and social background of Jharkhand, because the grand Trayodashi rites and tribute banquet of late Rupi Soren, the respected mother of the state Chief Minister Hemant Soren, is being organized in her native village Nemra. In this remote and quiet village Nemra under Dulmi block of Ramgarh district, not only from every corner of Jharkhand, but also from different parts of the country, big politicians, distinguished citizens, social workers and general public are reaching to join the grief of the family of their beloved leader and pay tribute to the departed soul. Mother Rupi Soren’s personality has always been that of a simple, friendly and struggling Jharkhandi woman, who provided a strong direction to her family and society during her lifetime. After his demise, there was a wave of mourning throughout Jharkhand, and today thousands and lakhs of people are paying their tribute at his feet through this sacrament feast.
The grandeur of this grand event can be gauged from the fact that preparations have been made on a war footing in Nemra, the native village of Chief Minister Hemant Soren, to accommodate the huge crowd coming from across the country, abroad and the state. A total of four big and grand pandals have been prepared in the main grounds of the village and the surrounding premises, in which state-of-the-art arrangements for sitting, eating and resting have been ensured. A huge team of local district administration, security agencies and JMM workers have been working day and night for the last several days to make this event a success. According to estimates, more than 5 lakh people are likely to attend this Sanskar Banquet today, for which adequate arrangements have been made from cooking food to traffic management and parking so that no visitor or general public faces any inconvenience.
Governor of Jharkhand, Chief Ministers of various states, Union Ministers, Members of Parliament (MP), MLAs (MLAs) and senior national and state level leaders of various political parties are reaching Nemra to participate in this tribute and banquet program of Rupi Soren. From security point of view, Nemra village and its surrounding area has been converted into a kind of cantonment, where police forces and security personnel are deployed at every nook and corner. There is a rush of people expressing condolences at the residence of JMM supremo Shibu Soren to join the Soren family in this sad moment. Rising beyond political boundaries, leaders of all parties are present on this mournful occasion to console Hemant Soren and his family, which presents a unique example of mutual respect and compassion in Indian political culture.
Organized as per Jharkhandi traditions, traditional dishes and cordial hospitality have been arranged for every guest coming to this ritual feast. Thousands of local cooks and volunteers have been providing their services for the last several days in the preparations for this grand feast. Today, this soil of Nemra village is once again becoming a witness to how this family, which rose from an ordinary rural environment and struggled, is still completely connected to its roots and traditional values. Every eye is moist remembering Rupi Soren’s love and blessings, but this huge event has also proved how the people of Jharkhand stand by their leaders and loved ones like a rock in happiness and sorrow. This historical sacrament feast is not only a religious and social ritual, but it has also emerged as a great symbol of Jharkhand’s collective unity and cultural identity.
