CHENNAI: Tamil Nadu chief minister M K Stalin on Thursday lambasted the BJP-led central government over the arrest of Jharkhand chief minister Hemant Soren by the Enforcement Directorate. Stalin called the arrest “outrageous and shameful!”.
“The arrest of Hon’ble Jharkhand chief minister Thiru Hemant Soren is a blatant display of political vendetta by Union BJP govt.Using investigative agencies to harass a tribal leader is a new low. This act reeks of desperation and abuse of power. BJP’s dirty tactics won’t silence opposition voices,” Stalin posted on X.
He said “despite BJP’s vindictive politics,” Hemant Soren stands strong and is refusing to bow down. “His resilience in the face of adversity is commendable. His determination to fight back against BJP’s bullying tactics is an inspiration,” he stated.
After several hours of investigation, the ED arrested Soren on Wednesday night in a land scam case. The JMM is part of the INDIA bloc.
