BJP ruined Jharkhand, Mahagathbandhan will set things right: RJD

BJP ruined Jharkhand and now since it's defeated and thrown out of the state, the new government of Mahagathbandhan would be there for the next 20 years, says state RJD chief JP Yadav. The RJD leader also alleged that the BJP government ruined the state and people were dying of hunger during its rule in the past five years.

New Delhi: The newly sworn-in government of Mahagathbandhan in Jharkhand will complete its full term as it was not a government that deceives people and makes false promises, Jharkhand RJD chief JP Yadav said.

Taking to the ETV Bharat in Delhi, Yadav said that the BJP has been thrown out of the state as it did not fulfil aspirations of people.

"I thank the people of the state. They threw the BJP out of it and our government headed by Chief Minister Hemant Soren would be there for the next 20 years as we are a government of the people," he asserted.

The RJD leader also alleged that the BJP government ruined the state and people were dying of hunger during its rule in the past five years.

"They ruined the state by selling land and other resources of the tribal to industrialists," he said, adding that people of the state had come to know their game plan and that is why they threw them out.

Commenting on the political situation in the poll-bound state of Bihar, the RJD leader said that people there would throw the government of Nitish Kumar out as well.

"People gave mandate against the BJP but Nitish Kumar, because of his hunger for power, sat on the lap of the saffron party and formed the government against the will of the people there," he said, adding that he would be taught a lesson.

Meanwhile, expansion of the Soren cabinet is likely to take place only after proving majority in the assembly during a three-day special Assembly session starting on January 6.
