'MY LIFE CHANGED COMPLETELY AFTER HEMANT'S ARREST'

|May 10, 2024
KALPANA Soren, the wife of jailed former Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Sroen, has projected herself as the JMM top leader since the arrest of her husband in a money laundering case linked to a land scam.
-
In an interview with Mukesh Ranjan, she says that her life changed completely after her husband's arrest in January. Excerpts:
How has been your political journey in the last two months?
My life has changed completely after January 31, the day Hemant ji was arrested by Enforcement Directorate (ED), because everything happened suddenly and created disturbances for me. I have now crossed all hurdles and we are in election mode. We are working hard to fight for the existence of 'Jharkhandi' identity.
How do you see the decision made by Sita Soren to quit JMM and join BJP?
The decision made by my elder sister-in-law came to us through the media, which shocked us. I was already shattered by the action taken against Hemant Soren ji and it took us some time to come out of that. I believe her decision is her personal and I respect, admire her as a younger sister-in-law.
Did you discuss with your husband the 'Plan-B' that if he is arrested, then what was to be done?
