Speaking to ETV Bharat, Senior leader also alleged that more number of farmers have committed suicide in the state as they have not received crop insurance amount promised by the state administration.
"Ever since Raghubar Das has become the Chief Minister of Jharkhand, the number of industries in the state have gone down. In fact, most of the automobile industries in Jamshedpur are also shutting down," Subodh said.
According to reports, Amit Shah will soon visit the election bound state to address booth level workers of the BJP and set the ball rolling for the grassroot level campaigning.
Besides, Raghubar Das is the first Chief Minister of Jharkhand to have completed a full five-year term after the formation of the state in 2000.
