In Ranchi, Jharkhand, the India Alliance is gearing up for a significant rally. Prior to this event, a member of the ruling Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) has revealed his discontent. JMM legislator Lobin Hembrom has declared he will not participate in the grand rally due to grievances with the coalition efforts and advocates for the party to contest elections independently.
"Why should I attend the Ulgulan Justice Grand Rally? What weakness has crept into the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha that they're holding a rally with the entire coalition? Wasn't the JMM capable on its own?" questioned Hembrom. He reminisced, "When Guruji led the movement for Jharkhand state alone, there was no coalition, but they fought the battle for truth on their own."
Lobin Hembrom has voiced concerns on the party's direction and, following his disappointment with the JMM, proclaimed his independent candidacy for the Rajmahal Lok Sabha seat. He stated that JMM's organization was once robust, garnering many assembly seats in the past elections. However, he suggested the organization weakened under Hemant Soren's leadership as Chief Minister.
Hembrom also accused certain individuals within the party of having a hand in Chief Minister Hemant Soren's legal troubles, asserting their controversial actions were well-known. "When we opposed Pankaj Mishra and Pintu, we were labeled rebels," he asserted.
Hembrom continues to defy the official JMM candidate Vijay Hansda and dedicates himself to a lone election campaign. His critique raises serious questions about the legitimacy of the upcoming assembly and the party's internal strength.
