Amid buzz over change’ of guard, Jharkhand Chief Minister says will challenge probe
AMID speculation that something big is imminent in Jharkhand politics, the state’s ruling alliance led by the JMM has called a legislature party meeting on Wednesday. The move comes amid a buzz that the Gandey Assembly seat has been vacated for CM Hemant Soren’s wife Kalpana in case the ongoing probe by the Enforcement Directorate in a land scam case turns against him.
Soren has skipped all previous seven summons issued to him for questioning in the land scam case. He was given a deadline of two days asking about his availability for the questioning, which too has expired. In the seventh summons issued to him on December 29, the ED asked him to decide the date, time and place himself, making it convenient for the officials to interrogate him.
