RANCHI/JAMSHEDPUR: PM Modi blamed the JMM-Congress-RJD coalition govt in Jharkhand Sunday for rising insecurity among the state's indigenous population, purportedly fuelled by its refusal to acknowledge the influx of Bangladeshi and Rohingya Muslims as a demographic threat, and "standing with them".
Modi's remark during a visit to Jharkhand, due for year-end assembly polls, came against the backdrop of the home ministry and Aadhaar's nodal agency UIDAI filing affidavits in the high court, citing infiltration in six tribal-dominant districts. "The tribal population is declining in Santhal Pargana and Kolhan divisions," he said in Ranchi.
Infiltrators committing crimes against women: PM in Jharkhand
The infiltrators are taking over panchayati raj institutions in the area and committing crimes against our daughters. HC formed an independent panel to investigate the matter only a few days ago. Every Jharkhandi is feeling insecure because of the infiltration," said the PM in Ranchi.
Modi launched Vande Bharat trains and rail projects worth Rs 660 crore, besides transferring PMAY benefits totalling Rs 32 crore. At BJP's parivartan rally in Jamshedpur later, he said, " JMM , Congress and RJD are standing with Rohingya and Bangladeshi immigrants ... They want to create vote banks in the name of religion. We must stop this right away. People of Jharkhand must unite, support BJP."
CM Hemant Soren's constituency, Barhait, is part of Santhal Pargana's Sahibganj district, bordering Murshidabad in Bengal. The twin affidavits submitted to Jharkhand HC state that while the Muslim population there rose sharply between 1961 and 2011, that of tribals dipped in the same period.
The PM termed JMM, Congress and RJD troika "enemies of the state" and the grand old party as the "origin of all corruption".
"Now, JMM is taking lessons from Congress school of corruption," Modi said. "While the middle class toils every day to earn and save little sums of money, crores are seized from their MPs and ministers. They do not spare even Army land. Now, the people are putting up 'not-for-sale' signage in front of their lands out of fear."
The PM said the coalition govt's days were numbered, pointing to how every Jharkhand citizen felt the "insult" meted out to ex-CM Champai Soren, who recently joined BJP. "They did not even spare Sita Soren, a woman and family member of Sorens. Women of Jharkhand will give them a befitting reply in the upcoming election."
The PM also said young people dying while competing for excise-constable posts reflected the state of affairs in Jharkhand.
