Ranchi: Chief minister Mohan Yadav on Monday said that the population of Hindus in Jharkhand is decreasing while that of other communities is increasing, which is very alarming. He made the remark while campaigning for the
BJP in Jharkhand's Giridih and Hazaribagh districts.
Yadav said that if the BJP govt is formed, then the party's double engine govt will go all out for the development of the state.
The BJP govt will ensure happy people and a prosperous Jharkhand.
CM Yadav addressed two election campaign public meetings-- one in the Gandey assembly segment in Giridih district and another in the Barkatta constituency in Hazaribagh district.
Addressing the gathering in Gandey, CM said, "The population of Hindus in Jharkhand is decreasing rapidly day by day, this is a serious sign for all of us. I am standing in the tribal area and saying with full responsibility. Look at the figures of the 2011 census, our population is continuously decreasing, while the population of other communities is increasing."
In a direct attack on chief minister Hemant Soren, Yadav said, "The Soren family came to power with your votes and instead of developing the state and people, CM Hemant Soren, his party and family got immersed in neck-deep corruption.
Hemant Soren went to jail due to the corruption done while being the chief minister. But he became CM again as soon as he was released from jail. The party, from whom the innocent people of Jharkhand are expecting development, is busy looting the state."
CM Yadav argued that Jharkhand's people are struggling for their livelihood. "Give the BJP a chance to serve by forming the govt. Our party will make Jharkhand a developed state. A double engine govt is needed here to give prosperity to the people of Jharkhand. There is a BJP govt at the Centre under the leadership of PM Narendra Modi. The double engine govt of the BJP will leave no stone unturned in the development of Jharkhand," CM Yadav said.
He further maintained that Jharkhand is lagging due to the wrong policies of the current Soren govt. "There are immense possibilities of development in a state like Jharkhand. But due to the wrong policies of the state govt, people here have to migrate to other states to work as labourers. The time has come to punish and take revenge on the current state govt of Jharkhand for its corruption and breaking promises. This revenge can be completed only when you remove the Soren family from power and give a chance to the BJP, which serves the country and the people. This time the BJP is going to come to power in Jharkhand with a huge majority," he said.
