Ruling party in the State, Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM), on Thursday, attacked BJP and AJSU Party Chief, Sudesh Mahto for allegedly insulting women. Addressing a press meet JMM General Secretary cum Spokesperson, Supriyo Bhattacharya said that Sudesh Mahato, who has been with the BJP for a long time, has his own values this is the reason why they are not only insulting a woman Baby Devi but also late Jagarnath Mahato.
“Every ministry of the Government is important. Chief Minister Hemant Soren gave her the Excise and Prohibition department. Isn't this a department? Sudesh Mahto is saying that Hemant Soren is selling liquor through a woman and Jagarnath Mahto's wife. How can someone stoop to such a low level to win an election? When there is public protest against it, these people are going to the Election Commission. JMM demands the Election Commission to ban Sudesh Mahto from campaigning in Dumri,” he added.
Bhattacharya said that Late Jagarnath Mahto always fought for the education of OBC class, locals, OBC reservation, 1932 Khatian and Jharkhandis throughout his life. “When Jagarnath Mahato passed away, Sudesh Mahato stood in front of his funeral pyre and said that he is standing with Jagarnath da's family. This is the same Sudesh Mahto, when the OBC reservation was reduced from 27 per cent to 14 per cent during Babulal Marandi's chief Ministership. This is the same Sudesh Mahto, when the Raghubar Government had formulated the Khatian based local policy on the basis of 1985 and its leader Chandraprakash Chowdhary had held a press conference. Today the same Sudesh Mahato not only fielded a candidate against the family of late Jagarnath Mahato, but he is also insulting his wife and family. With what mouth are they campaigning in Dumri, roaming around. Imported leaders and people are being fielded for communal polarization in Dumri. The witness of this is also with JMM. It will be brought to the fore when the time comes and the need arises,” he added.
The party General Secretary said that the whole Country has seen the love of Prime Minister, Narendra Modi and the BJP in the case of Manipur and women wrestlers. “The PM and the BJP, who sucked the blood of women sisters for nine years, are working to reduce the LPG gas by Rs 200 and offer saline. Strange things have happened in the Country. If the PM had so much pain towards women, then why didn't he go to Manipur, where tribal sisters were paraded naked. What action was taken by the Government against Braj Bhushan Singh, the accused of women wrestlers. Now the work of sprinkling salt on the burn of women is being done,” he added.
In response to a question about the meeting of the INDIA alliance, Bhattacharya said that the Dumri bye-election would be the first victory of this alliance. “NDA will also be defeated in this way. In the meeting of INDIA, many things will be decided including the National leader, common program. As far as JMM is concerned, the responsibility assigned to Hemant Soren will be fulfilled. The decision on seat sharing will be according to the situation of the State. It is known to all that the JMM is strong in Jharkhand,” he added.
