Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan Criticizes Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren Over Recruitment Test Tragedy
Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has criticized Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren following the deaths of twelve candidates during a police recruitment physical efficiency test. Chouhan stated that the youth of Jharkhand will never forgive the JMM government for this incident.
Chouhan, who is also the BJP Jharkhand Election Incharge, arrived in Ranchi and declared, “Our target is to free Jharkhand from the misrule of JMM. As elections in the state are getting closer, Chief Minister Hemant Soren had promised 5 lakh jobs. In the last few days during the Excise constable recruitment drive, youths were forced to run for 10 km without proper arrangements. This kind of 10 km run is not conducted anywhere. Just for vote bank politics and to deceive the youth, this conspiracy was fabricated.”
He further added, “12 youths passed away. This is not an incident, this is murder. This has been done for vote bank politics and the youth of Jharkhand will never forgive the JMM government.”
Earlier, Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren expressed his condolences over the deaths and directed an immediate review of the rules set by the previous government. He also instructed changes for future recruitment drives. Soren took to social media platform X, stating, “Johar friends, the untimely death of the participants during the race for the recruitment of excise constable is sad and heartbreaking. While directing for immediate review of the rules made by the previous government.”
Jharkhand is set to witness an election to the 81-member legislative assembly later this year as the current government’s tenure ends in 2024. The Election Commission of India (ECI) is yet to announce the dates.
