Union Minister and Jharkhand BJP election in-charge Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Monday strongly criticised the Hemant Soren-led Jharkhand government, calling it a "Jurm, Murder and Mafia" government rather than the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM).
Jharkhand Finance Minister and Congress leader Rameshwar Oraon retorted for making a similar kind of alliance between Congress and Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) as it was made during the last assembly polls as "both parties will benefit" from that.
"Currently, infiltration is the biggest problem in Jharkhand. The parents of young daughters are worried. 2-3 days ago, Jharkhand High Court ordered an independent panel to investigate the infiltration... But the JMM government is not ready to admit that there is infiltration in Jharkhand...
Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) Central General Secretary Supriyo Bhattacharya on Friday said that the BJP is talking about 'communal demography' because of the elections, adding that a "state of confusion" is being created in Jharkhand regarding illegal immigration.
Bharatiya Janata Party leader and former Chief Minister of Jharkhand Champai Soren affirmed that the BJP is the only party intending to develop the state, adding that no one can stop the party from forming the government in Jharkhand.
After joining the Bharatiya Janata Party, expelled Jharkhand Mukti Morcha leader Lobin Hembrom on Saturday claimed that the people in the JMM are upset and said that JMM is not JMM anymore.
Expelled Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) leader Lobin Hembrom joined the BJP in the presence of Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma in Ranchi, Jharkhand on Saturday.
Former Jharkhand Chief Minister and senior leader Champai Soren vowed to stop infiltration from Bangladesh into the state after joining the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Friday.
Launching a scathing attack against Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren, Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Thursday said that Soren is scared and all the ministers and MLAs of Jharkhand Mukti Morcha and alliance are being spied upon.
He also emphasized that he is joining the BJP with an intent to develop the state and to save the very existence of tribals who are in danger due to Bangladeshi infiltration.
