Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday launched an attack against Hemant Soren, alleging that Jharkhand's tribal Chief Minister was instrumental behind "love jihad" and "land jihad" in the state due to his "vote bank and appeasement policy". Shah said that Soren's policies have led to demographic changes in the tribal state.
Furthermore, the Home Minister also said that if the BJP forms the next government in Jharkhand, it will release a 'White Paper' on demography to protect tribal lands and rights.
Amit Shah also claimed that a large number of infiltrators were entering Jharkhand, marrying tribal women, acquiring certificates, and purchasing land, thereby taking jobs meant for the local population.
The senior BJP leader lashed out at Hemant Soren for focusing on increasing his vote bank and alleged that his welfare measures primarily benefit his family.
