Hon’ble Union Home Minister & Minister of Cooperation and Senior BJP leader Shri Amit Shah addressed two mega public rallies in Jharia and Baghmara in Jharkhand on Tuesday and strongly criticized the Jhrakhand’s INDI Alliance, blaming it for promoting infiltration into Jharkhand and for the issue of the decreasing tribal population in the state. During the events, BJP Jharia Candidate Smt Ragini Singh, BJP Baghmara Candidate Shri Shatrugan Mahto, Dhanbad District BJP President Shri Shravan Rai, Dhanbad MP Shri Dulu Mahto and BJP Organization General Secretary of Jharkhand Shri Saroj Singh, among other leaders were present.
Shri Shah began his address by seeking blessings from Kalyaneshwar Devi and Bhagwan Birsa Munda. He also paid tribute to Madan Mohan Malviya, stating that today marks the birth anniversary of Mahamana Madan Mohan Malviya, who was a great freedom fighter and established BHU. He stated that on the upcoming 20th of November, the vote of the people of Jharia and Dhanbad will decide their future. The vote will decide whether they want the government of JMM, who make themselves crorepatis, or Hon’ble PM Shri Narendra Modi Ji, who makes poor women ‘Lakhpati Didis’.
Hon’ble Union Home Minister stated that Jharkhand is the most prosperous state of India, as its land is enriched with abundant coal, aluminum, steel, etc. Jharkhand is prosperous, but the people of Jharkhand are not because of no developmental work. After forming the BJP government, in 5 years, the party will work to make Jharkhand the most prosperous state in India.
Shri Shah stated that ₹35 crore has been found at the home of Jharkhand Minister Alamgir Alam and ₹350 crore from the house of Congress MP. The money found in the raids belonged to the common people of Jharkhand, which was looted by the JMM and Congress. After the BJP forms the government, there will be action against those who did corruption. The money, which belongs to poor Adivasis, youth, and backwards, will be kept in Jharkhand’s treasury after the BJP forms the government. The Jharkhand government has been involved in several scams, including a ₹1000 crore MGNREGA scam, a ₹1000 crore mining scam, multi-crore land scam, and a multi-crore liquor excise policy scam.
Hon’ble Union Home Minister remarked that the BJP has formed a ‘Sankalp Patra’ that outlines the party’s commitments. While Congress leader Rahul Gandhi makes ‘Khata-Khat,’ ‘Phata-Phat’ announcements, those promises would remain unfulfilled, something both the public and Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge acknowledged. Shri Shah emphasized that ‘Modi Ki Guarantees’ are firm and the BJP is committed to fulfilling each one of them. Shri Shah announced that the BJP has pledged to deposit ₹2,100 monthly into women’s bank accounts under the ‘Gogo Didi Yojana’. Gas cylinders would not cost more than ₹500 and the BJP government would provide two free gas cylinders each year on Diwali and Rakshabandhan. Hemant Soren had promised ‘Bekaari Bhatta’ for the youth, which was not delivered. Under a BJP government, the youth will receive a monthly cheque of ₹2,000.
Shri Shah mentioned that during the BJP’s tenure, women in Jharkhand only had to pay ₹1 as stamp duty on property purchases up to ₹50 lakh, a benefit that the JMM later discontinued. He assured that the BJP would reinstate this benefit. The BJP government would buy farmers’ rice at ₹3,100 per quintal and increase pensions for the elderly, disabled and widows to ₹2,500. The people of Jharkhand migrate to other states for employment, but the BJP will ensure the establishment of industries in the state to prevent migration to other states.
Hon’ble Union Home Minister stated that in the past 10 years, Hon’ble PM Shri Narendra Modi Ji has worked for the poor people of the country. Every poor household now receives a toilet facility, water connection, pucca house, electricity connection, and 5 kg of free food grains per month. Under Ayushman Bharat, ₹5 lakh in free health benefits was provided. Now, every elderly person aged above 70 years will receive ₹5 lakh in Ayushman Bharat benefits, totaling ₹10 lakh per household. Hon’ble PM Shri Narendra Modi Ji used Jharkhand as the center to launch public beneficiary schemes. Ayushman Bharat, PM Jan Dhan Yojana, and Mudra Yojana were first launched in Jharkhand. He said that in 10 years under the Sonia-Manmohan, Rahul Gandhi, Lalu Prasad, and Hemant Soren governments, only ₹84,000 crore was allotted to Jharkhand. However, from 2014 to 2024, ₹3 lakh 90 thousand crore has been given to the state, with another ₹81 thousand crore allotted for infrastructure development.
Shri Shah remarked that Hemant Soren welcomes infiltrators and then the infiltrators take away jobs from youth and marry tribal women to capture their land. The BJP government in Jharkhand will systematically identify and remove every infiltrator from India. Significant steps will also be taken to prevent new infiltrators from entering the state. Shri Shah stated that the JMM is spreading false claims that the implementation of the Uniform Civil Code will harm tribals. Shri Shah added that UCC will definitely be implemented, including in Jharkhand, to prevent infiltration. However, tribals will be excluded from the UCC and it will not affect them. JMM protects infiltrators because they are afraid of their vote bank. However, BJP is not afraid of that vote bank.
Hon’ble Union Home Minister stated that the Congress party delayed the construction of the Ram Mandir for nearly 70 years, but under Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji, the temple’s construction and ‘Pran Pratishtha’ were completed in just five years. Not only the Ram Mandir, but the Kashi Vishwanath Corridor was developed and the process of making the Somnath Mandir with gold has now begun. Shri Shah assured the traders of Jharia that once the BJP formed the government, no one would have to pay extortion money. The BJP is also dedicated to completely eradicating coal smuggling. Under Hemant Soren’s government, youth have to run around in desperation to secure a job. In contrast, the BJP will ensure such transparency in recruitment that appointment letters will be delivered directly to people’s homes by the postman.
Shri Shah stated that the Congress party is an anti-reservation party and seeks to end reservations for backward communities and Dalits while offering them to a special community. As long as the BJP is in power, the special community will not be given reservations. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has nearly eliminated terrorism and Naxalism from the country. Whereas, Rahul Gandhi’s Congress party wants to restore Article 370, but neither Rahul Gandhi nor even his coming generations can bring it back. Kashmir is an inseparable part of India and no one can take it away. Shri Amit Shah also mentioned that Rahul Gandhi’s Congress, Lalu Yadav’s RJD, Mamata Banerjee’s TMC, and Hemant Soren’s JMM all opposed the removal of Article 370, claiming it would result in rivers of blood. Six years have passed and no one even has the courage to throw a single stone.
Hon’ble Union Home Minister mentioned that elections are taking place in Maharashtra, where the ulemas submitted a petition to Congress Maharashtra President Nana Patole, requesting reservations for Muslims. Nana Patole accepted their demand. In Karnataka and Telangana, the Congress reduced reservations for backward classes, Dalits, and tribals and gave them to a special community. As long as the BJP is in power, no one will be able to alter the reservations.
Shri Shah stated that in 1955, the Kakasaheb Kalelkar Commission was established, which recommended reservations for backward classes. Later, the Mandal Commission made similar recommendations, but Indira Gandhi and the Congress party did not accept them. It is Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji who granted constitutional recognition to the Backward Classes Commission, thereby honoring the backward communities. Under the leadership of Hon’ble PM Shri Narendra Modi Ji, 27% reservation has been implemented for all central admissions, including those in medical, engineering, and Sainik schools. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has also ensured that 30% of the members in the BJP government come from backward classes. Rahul Gandhi and JMM have worked to divide society by caste. Hon’ble PM Shri Narendra Modi Ji has focused on four categories: the poor, youth, women, and farmers, and worked for their respect and upliftment.
Hon’ble Union Home Minister stated that just like a transformer supplies electricity to homes, the state government is responsible for delivering the central government’s schemes to the public. However, the transformer of the JMM government has failed and needs to be replaced. A double-engine government should be formed in the state to ensure the effective implementation of these schemes. Shri Shah urged the public to give a resounding victory to Smt. Ragini Singh and Shri Shatrughan Mahto by voting in favor of the ‘Lotus’ symbol to form the BJP government in Jharkhand, thereby strengthening Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji.
