BJP wants to divide Jharkhand, alleges Hemant Soren
Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren has accused the BJP of attempting to divide the state along religious lines and by carving out the Santhal Parganas region. Soren asserted that the BJP's efforts to "break" Jharkhand would be met with resistan...

"Leaders of BJP are camping in the state but they don't utter a word for development, progress and peace in Jharkhand. They are only dividing people in the name of religion," Soren posted on X.
Accusing the BJP of trying to carve out the Santhal Parganas from Jharkhand, he said the people would give them a befitting reply.
"The holy land of Lord Ram, by the grace of God, has broken the pride of dictators like Ravana -- Jharkhand will also break their pride because they want to break Jharkhand," he said
Soren alleged that the BJP was dividing the Santhals as they wanted to "erase our history".
"They want to erase our heritage from Bhognadih, Deoghar, Basukinath, which are symbols of our faith and belief," he alleged.
He said that Jharkhand would not be divided, and the Santhals would remain united and be with the state.
