Sonam Wangchuk vows to continue hunger strike as CJP reclaims Jantar Mantar stage
Hemant Soren is set to return as the Chief Minister of Jharkhand. He was released from prison after 5 months. This change of guard has been decided after the INDI bloc MLAs and leaders reached a consensus, said reports. He will be sworn-in on July 5th.
Hemant was released from jail last month after the Jharkhand High Court granted him bail. He was jailed in connection with a money laundering case linked to an alleged land-grabbing scam.
Incumbent CM Champai Soren is expected to submit his resignation to the Governor by late evening at around 8 pm, the sources said.
The INDIA bloc's meeting was held at the CM's residence in Ranchi. This is the 3rd time that Hemant Soren will be sworn-in as the Chief Minister of Jharkhand.
