'Hem-Ant': BJP's Dig After Former Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren's Arrest In Land Scam Probe
In an X post, the Jharkhand unit of BJP posted a photo of Hemant Soren writing "Hem-Ant", following the arrest of former Jharkhand CM in a land scam probe.
The Bharatiya Janata Party's Jharkhand branch, in a recent X post, shared a photograph of Hemant Soren accompanied by the caption "Ant (The End)." The Jharkhand Chief Minister and Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) leader was arrested late on Wednesday after an extensive seven-hour interrogation by the Enforcement Directorate in a land scam case.

Earlier in the day, Soren had submitted his resignation to the Governor, potentially opening the door for his loyalist and state Transport Minister Champai Soren to take over as CM, as indicated by the ruling alliance.
Jharkhand Congress president Rajesh Thakur confirmed the resignation, stating, “CM Hemant Soren has decided to resign. Champai Soren has been chosen as the new leader of the Legislative party. All the MLAs are with us.” The JMM and Congress share an alliance in the state.
Speculation began around 5:30 pm when two mini-buses were observed entering the CM’s residence. Half an hour later, Chief Secretary L Khyangate and DGP Ajay Kumar Singh also arrived.
In a video posted by BJP National Spokesperson Shehzad Poonawala, he remarked, "One more feather in cap of corruption of INDI alliance in the form of Hemant Soren. There was a time Kejriwal used to demand arrest of Lalu, Soren, Sonia. These days this U-turn master shamelessly defends them because he himself is the mastermind of Sharab Ghotala. Kya se kya ho gaya".

We had never heard of so much corruption. Even the land for the military was not spared... You think that you can do anything with money, but it is PM Modi's government now. We have no strategy yet, we are seeing all the political updates happening... We cannot say what will happen in the future," he told ANI.
