JMM MLA quits, BJP sniffs plan to make Soren's wife new CM

IndiaTimes Monday, 1 January 2024
A three-time JMM MLA resigned unexpectedly from the Jharkhand assembly within hours of CM Hemant Soren ignoring a seventh ED summons in the Ranchi land scam case, leading BJP to predict Monday the latter would step down and have his wife Kalpana Soren take over the chief ministership via the vacated Gandey seat. Sarfaraz Ahmad, 64, provided grist for speculation by giving up his assembly membership without citing a reason. Speaker Rabindranath Mahto, who accepted the resi gnation, said Monday, “Given Ahmed’s seniority, I didn’t find it suitable to seek an explanation for him quitting.”

Samajwadi Cadre's Pitch Dimple Yadav for PM as Mainpuri Gears Up for Polls Oneindia

In the heart of Uttar Pradesh's Mainpuri, the stronghold of the Samajwadi Party, the party's cadre is rallying behind their local MP and party stalwart, Dimple Yadav, with an ambitious call – to see her as the next Prime Minister of India. As the region gears up for polling on May 7, the voices on the ground paint a picture of disillusionment with the incumbent BJP government, which they believe has failed to live up to its promises. The party workers allege that the ruling dispensation has neglected the needs and aspirations of the people, and they see Dimple Yadav as a beacon of hope – a leader who understands the grassroots issues and can steer the nation towards progress. With fervent support from the party's base, the Samajwadi Party is gearing up for a fierce battle, aiming to regain its foothold in the state and potentially propel Dimple Yadav to the national stage. #LokSabhaElections #LokSabhaPolls #Elections2024 #LokSabhaElections2024 #LSPolls2024 ~PR.152~PR.282~ED.103~HT.98~##~
