CM Raghubar Das is on the backfoot as Governor Murmu returns bills seeking amendments to the tribal tenancy act
In a major setback to Chief Minister Raghubar Das, Jharkhand governor Droupadi Murmu has put her foot down on the controversial amendments to the Chotanagpur Tenancy (CNT) Act, 1908, and the Santhal Pargana Tenancy (SPT) Act, 1949, and returned the two contentious amendment bills to the government with queries.
While sending the two bills back, Murmu is said to have asked how tenancy land amendments would help the masses. She has also forwarded the 192 protest petitions that the Raj Bhavan has received from various organisations against the proposed amendments.
