On a sunny Sunday in Bhognadih, the former Chief Minister of Jharkhand, Hemant Soren, made a bold declaration. He announced a "rebellion" against the "feudal forces" and boldly stated that the opposition bloc, INDIA, will drive the BJP out of the entire country. Addressing a spirited crowd at the ‘Hul Diwas’ rally, Soren also claimed that the saffron party is feeling uneasy after his release from jail and their leaders are already plotting against him once again.
As he stood before the crowd, Soren began by acknowledging the significance of the day, which marks the 1855 Santhal rebellion against the British. He compared it to the current situation and declared the need for a similar "Hul rebellion" to overthrow the oppressive forces not just in Jharkhand, but in the entire country. Soren, who was recently released from jail, expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to address the people on this important day.
However, he did not shy away from addressing the fact that he was falsely implicated in cases and sent to jail. He accused the Centre of using its probe agencies to harass those who speak up against them. Soren also pointed out that the BJP is getting increasingly worried about his release and their top leaders have been making frequent visits to Jharkhand to conspire against him. Despite this, he remained resolute and asserted that he will not be silenced or stopped in his fight for the rights of tribals.
Soren also took a dig at the Centre, alleging that they were planning to hold Assembly elections earlier than scheduled. He dared them to conduct the elections whenever they wanted, as his party was prepared to face any challenge. He urged the people to be prepared for the "testing times ahead" and promised them that they will emerge victorious.
The JMM executive president continued his speech in the Santhal language, paying tribute to the revolutionary fighters who have fought for the rights of tribals. He promised to bring in legislation that will ensure the benefits of mines and minerals are first and foremost given to the people of Jharkhand. Soren strongly believes that the resources of the state should not be used to enrich other places while its own inhabitants remain in poverty and backwardness.
He also criticized the Centre for the rising prices of essential commodities and the frequent leak of examination papers. Soren believes that these issues need to be addressed and the welfare of the poor, dalits, and tribals should be the top priority.
The former CM's release from jail was a significant moment for the people of Jharkhand, and they showed their support and love by attending the rally. Many prominent figures were present, including his wife and JMM legislator Kalpana Soren and his brother, Basant Soren, who is also a minister. The current Chief Minister, Champai Soren, also spoke at the event, accusing the previous government of putting his predecessor behind bars for speaking up for the marginalized communities. He also inaugurated and laid the foundation for several projects worth around Rs 290 crore.
Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi paid tribute to the tribal freedom fighters, Veer Sidhu and Kanhu, who led the Santhal uprising. In his ‘Mann Ki Baat’ programme, he acknowledged their bravery and the significance of the day. However, Soren's bold declaration of a "rebellion" against the oppressive forces shows that the fight for justice and equality is still ongoing, and the people of Jharkhand will not back down until their voices are heard.
