Former Minister Babulal Marandi Calls Out Corruption in Soren Government

Ranchi, October 4 – In a sharp speech delivered in the Jharkhand Legislative Assembly, former minister and senior opposition voice Babulal Marandi targeted Chief Minister Hemant Soren over a series of alleged graft cases. Marandi warned that political power is not permanent and urged the administration to act swiftly, fix systemic flaws, and restore public confidence. He outlined a catalogue of controversies ranging from a land‑allocation scandal to questionable liquor‑policy decisions, a stone‑mining irregularity and a widely reported paper‑leak episode that has drawn the attention of courts and investigative agencies. By highlighting these issues, Marandi sought to compel the Soren government to undertake immediate corrective measures.
