Bangladeshi will be thrown out of Jharkhand, says Nadda in Palamu

Palamau: Bharatiya Janata Party president Jagat Prasad Nadda on Saturday said that once the saffron party is voted to power in Jharkhand, it will not allow tribal rights to children of infiltrator father and local Adivasi mother.

Addressing an election rally at Bishrampur in Palamu district, Nadda alleged that the JMM-led government has given shelter to Bangladeshi infiltrators and they would be driven out.

"Children of Bangladeshi infiltrator father and Adivasi mother will be denied tribal rights if the BJP is voted to power in Jharkhand. It will not allow infiltration to continue," Nadda said. He alleged that "corrupt people and thieves" are part of the JMM-led government in the state. "Time has come to oust single-engine government from Jharkhand and restore double-engine government here for all-round development," the BJP chief said.

Accusing the Hemant Soren-led government in Jharkhand of rolling out a red carpet welcome to Bangladeshi infiltrators, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said on Saturday that such forces will be deported as soon as the BJP forms government in the state.

He also charged the Congress and JMM of spreading lies that the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) will claim tribal rights, making it clear that the saffron party will put tribals out of its ambit.

"The JMM-led coalition has laid out a red carpet for Bangladeshi infiltrators, who settle in Jharkhand and grab tribal land, employment of youths, and indulge in anti-national activities. Let the BJP regime form. They will be deported, and not a bird will be allowed to cross the border," Shah said at an election rally at Potka in East Singhbhum.

He asserted that the saffron party will put corrupt Congress and JMM leaders behind bars and realise every paisa of poor people they looted.

Nadda assured the people of Jharkhand that a BJP government at the state level would bring significant development, including the establishment of 10 new medical colleges. Nadda highlighted Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s special connection to Jharkhand, stating that many of the country’s major schemes had been launched from

He also took a jibe at the Hemant Soren-led state government, alleging that they were blocking projects intended for the people of Jharkhand. Nadda specifically pointed to the 123 crore water project that had been stalled by the state government because it was being funded by the Modi government. “The Hemant government stopped a water scheme worth 123 crore rupees just because the money was coming from Modi ji. This is a government that blocks development just for the sake of politics,” he said.
