On Friday, Union Home Minister Amit Shah launched a scathing attack on the Hemant Soren government during the BJP's 'Parivartan Sabha' in Giridih, Jharkhand. He mentioned that the tribal region of Palamu began a journey this morning, with another journey starting from Giridih. These journeys are named 'Parivartan Yatra' (Change Journey) and aim to spread the message of change across every region of Jharkhand. This transformation isn't just about changing the government or the chief minister; it aims at transforming the lives of tribals, OBCs, and Dalits.
He warned that the ongoing infiltration in Jharkhand could result in these infiltrators becoming a majority in 25-30 years. He accused them of destroying the culture, usurping resources, and entering into fake marriages with women, thus stealing jobs. He urged the public to overthrow the current government in the upcoming assembly elections.
The Congress party, he alleged, kept the Kaka Kalelkar Commission report under wraps for 50 years and did not implement the Mandal Commission report during Indira Gandhi's tenure. Rajiv Gandhi opposed it as well. The Congress withheld constitutional recognition for the OBC Commission for 70 years, whereas Modi Ji's government granted it.
Amit Shah reiterated that the JMM-led government in Jharkhand has wronged tribals, Dalits, and women. Despite being rich in mineral resources and capable of filling the nation's treasury, the youth are forced to migrate to other states for jobs. While the UPA government allocated 84,000 crore rupees to Jharkhand over ten years, PM Modi has sanctioned 3.81 lakh crore rupees.
The Home Minister emphasized the need to remove the government that has allowed infiltrators to ruin tribal land, daughters, and culture. The 'Parivartan Yatra' signifies a dream for Jharkhand's development, aligning with Modi Ji's vision for a prosperous and developed Jharkhand.
Amit Shah Roars in Sahibganj
Before the 'Parivartan Sabha' in Jamua, Amit Shah flagged off another 'Parivartan Yatra' in Sahibganj. Present were Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma, BJP state president Babulal Marandi, Union Minister Annapurna Devi, and former CM Champai Soren. Shah stated that the objective of BJP's 'Parivartan Yatra' is to achieve a "Great Jharkhand" and a "Developed Jharkhand."
Addressing a public gathering in Sahibganj, the Union Home Minister criticized the JMM-led government for playing vote-bank politics and promised to expel every illegal immigrant if the BJP comes to power. He also pledged free health insurance worth 10 lakh rupees for poor people aged 75 years or older.
Shah claimed that the ruling JMM is "protecting infiltrators" for votes, reducing the tribal population in Santhal Pargana from 44% to 28%. He added that infiltrators are the vote bank for the RJD, Congress, and JMM, and vowed to expel illegal immigrants and end the corrupt JMM government. "It's time to change Jharkhand," he said.
He accused the Hemant Soren government of focusing on the welfare of infiltrators rather than the public good. The BJP's manifesto includes free treatment worth up to 10 lakh rupees for poor people aged 75 years or older. Soren's government, he claimed, is the most corrupt in the country, citing scams in MGNREGA, mining, land, and a 40 crore rupees liquor scandal. "They have even usurped army land," he said.
