Earlier, Kalpana Soren, the wife of former Chief Minister Hemant Soren, held a meeting with party workers on April 6 to ensure the success of the Ulgulan Rally scheduled for April 21.

The rally will be held at Prabhat Tara Ground on April 21 to protest against the arrest of former chief minister Hemant Soren. “I have appealed to all the party members to participat­e in large numbers in the INDIA rally. We will tell how the central government is discrimina­ting against Jharkhand. Our honorable Hemant Ji has also been imprisoned, and they have put Delhi’s Kejriwal Ji in jail as well. The discussion happened to strengthen the alliance,” she said.
