New Delhi [India], August 27 (ANI): Former Jharkhand Chief Minister and Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) leader Champai Soren will join the Bharatiya Janata Party on August 30 in Ranchi, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said on Monday.
“Former Chief Minister of Jharkhand and a distinguished Adivasi leader of our country, Champai Soren met Union Home Minister Amit Shah a short while ago. He will officially join the BJP on 30th August in Ranchi,” the Assam CM posted on X.
Meanwhile, former Jharkhand CM Champai Soren and Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma were seen leaving from Home Minister Amit Shah’s residence after the meeting.
Earlier, Champai Soren hinted at forming a new party, after Soren took to social media to voice his grievances, stating that he had been “insulted” during his tenure as Chief Minister and that all options remained open ahead of the forthcoming Jharkhand Assembly elections.
He also listed out, in a post on X, various instances when he was not allowed to call a meeting of the legislative party and was asked to resign suddenly, which prompted him “to look for an alternative path.”
“I have been trying to get the rights of the tribals, natives, poor, labourers, students and people of backward classes of the state. Whether I held any post or not, I was always available to the public, raising the issues of those people who had dreamt of a better future with the state of Jharkhand,” he said.
As the political climate in Jharkhand intensified, all eyes were on Champai Soren and his next move, with significant implications for the upcoming state elections.
Assembly elections are going to be held in Jharkhand this year in 2024 and the BJP has fully prepared to corner the government. (ANI)
