Reacting to Monday evening’s incident when Chief Minister Hemant Soren’s convoy was ‘attacked’ near Kishoreganj Chowk in the Capital City, the CM today said that people were ready to ambush him and were waiting for him at the site. “When they failed to do anything, they started creating ruckus on the road. If they do such things administration will take it very seriously. Whoever are the people involved in the incident strict action will be taken. Nobody will be spared,” he said.
“Ranchi is a small place and every other person knows every other. Everyone knows who are whose people. The law doesn’t work on the basis of party. It acts against crimes and criminals,” said the CM talking to media persons here on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, the government has constituted a two-member high-level committee to investigate the entire incident. A senior officer each of the Indian Administrative Service and the Indian Police Service has been included in this committee. The committee has been
asked to investigate the attack on the CM’s convoy and submit a detailed report as soon as possible.
Apart from this, show cause has been demanded from the Deputy Commissioner of Ranchi and the Senior Superintendent of Police. It is to be known that as the CM Hemant Soren’s convoy was returning from the Jharkhand Ministry on January 4, a mob of miscreants near Kishoreganj Chowk tried to target the convoy as part of a planned conspiracy. However, Ranchi Police, while showing prudence, diverted the convoy of the CM safely to his official residence. A committee of inquiry has been formed to investigate the causes of this serious incident.
