Infiltrators marrying Jharkhand's tribal women, usurping their lands: Amit Shah

Chaibasa (Jharkhand): Home Minister Amit Shah, who reached Jharkhand on Saturday to address a rally in Chaibasa, accused Chief Minister Hemant Soren of engaging in vote bank politics and ‘not protecting tribal women’ who are falling prey to the devices of infiltrators.

He alleged that Soren was indulging in corruption for political greed and “given lands of tribals to infiltrators”.

Shah said Soren failed to protect tribal women from infiltrators, who, he alleged, would marry them to usurp their lands.

Launching a blistering attack on the JMM-led Grand Alliance government, Shah said Soren fooled the youth of the state in the name of “domicile policy” and “jobs”.

He slammed the Jharkhand Government’s domicile policy which has set 1932 as the cut-off year for the proof of land records for defining a local, and widening the divide and cheating the people of Chaibasa, whose land record settlement year is 1964.

He questioned if the youth living in Chaibasa could get a state government job on the basis of this domicile policy.

Alleging that the ruling coalition government had handed over the reins to “extortionists” and “middlemen”, Shah said he had come to the state to warn the government against it as people wouldn’t forgive them in the next polls.
