‘ Dream for Jharkhand yet to be fulfilled’

Pakur ( J’khand), Dec. 8: Jharkhand chief minister Raghubar Das on Saturday said the dream for which the tribal state was created 18 years ago was yet to be fulfilled and political leaders had become rich in the first 14 years due to coalition politics in the state.

The Bharatiya Janata Party ( BJP) government run by Das in Jharkhand will complete four years on December 28.

By then, all households in the state would be electrified, the chief minister said during an interaction with the people of Samsera village in Pakur district of Santhal Pargana.

Solar power will be provided to the households and villages located atop hills or in remote areas, he said.

“For 14 years, coalition politics ruled during which the leaders became rich while the people fell behind.... The dream for which Jharkhand was created is yet to be fulfilled,” an official release quoted Das as saying.
