Pratul Shah Deo (ANI photo) RANCHI: Ahead of the second phase of Jharkhand Assembly polls , BJP spokesperson Pratul Shah Deo alleged that the Jharkhand government 's special branch provided documents and ID proofs to infiltrators and the interests of tribals at Santhal Pargana have been encroached. Pratul Shah Deo said, "In this election, Santhal Pargana is very important. The manner in which the State Government's special branch provided documents and ID proofs to infiltrators, they themselves admitted in a letter from June 2023 that infiltrators are provided accommodation in Madrasas and their ID documents are made.
So, the encroachment into the interests of tribals here is the biggest issue. He further claimed that the INDIA bloc would snatch the rights of tribals if they come to power. "Now, the Congress' Jharkhand in charge, Ghulam Ahmad Mir said that they would provide cylinders to infiltrators at Rs 450.
..This is treason.
It clearly shows that they would snatch away the rights of Jharkhandis and tribals, and give the same to infiltrators," he further said. Earlier, Home Minister Amit Shah addressed a public meeting in the Dumka Assembly Constituency, where he lashed out at the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) and Congress for allegedly misleading the tribal community and protecting infiltrators. Speaking on the Uniform Civil Code (UCC), Shah assured the tribal population that they would not be affected by its implementation.
He said, "JMM and Congress are spreading rumours.
