Jharkhand CM played with India's healthy democratic practices: Rajnath
Defence Minister Rajnath Singh slammed Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren on Saturday, dubbing him the ‘most corrupt CM’ who played with India's healthy democratic practices.
Singh asserted that it was time to dethrone Soren and vote the BJP to power in the eastern state as Assembly elections are due in Jharkhand later in the year.
“Hemant Soren is the most corrupt CM. He has played with India's healthy democratic practices and indulged in corruption. India will never accept any tainted person,” he said, flagging off BJP's 'Parivartan Yatra' in Itkhori.
He also attacked Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, alleging that he ‘tarnished’ India's image abroad and tried to provoke the Sikh community.
"Rahul Gandhi visited the US and tried to provoke the Sikh community by saying that India is not safe for them. He is tarnishing India’s image and reputation in foreign countries,” Singh said.
He also termed the ruling coalition in Jharkhand – the JMM, Congress and RJD – as three ‘speed breakers blocking the state's development’.
Singh slammed the state government for ‘patronising’ Bangladeshi and Rohingya infiltrators. He said they were marrying their daughters, which won't be tolerated as BJP believes in the politics of justice and not caste, creed or religion.
