A delegation of AJSU party will meet Chief Minister Raghubar Das on Wednesday to make him aware of its sentiments on the issue of domicile policy in the State. The decision was taken during the Central Working Committee meeting held at the residence of party chief Sudesh Mahto on Tuesday.
“A delegation led by all the top leaders will meet the CM tomorrow and make him aware of our sentiments related to domicile policy in the State,” said central spokesperson Deo Sharan Bhagat. After rigorous brainstorming, it was found by the party intellectuals that justice has not been done with the Moolvasi of this State, added Bhagat.
During the meeting, it was reiterated that the party was committed towards ensuring their rights to Moolvasi of this state. According to the party leaders the issue of domicile was very sensitive and hence it must be dealt accordingly.
The party think tank also believed that the issue of domicile in this state was different from the other states as the state has been formed out of movements and sacrifices of thousands of people hence the party was committed towards providing justice to the sentiments of Moolvasi.
AJSU, despite being in the Government, has been raising voices against the Domicile Policy which was passed in the Cabinet on Thursday. The Jharkhand government announced the much awaited domicile policy that enables any person living in the state for the last 30 years to enjoy benefits as a permanent resident.
