Jharkhand: Political criticism and mudslinging is common during electioneering, however, the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) leader, Hemant Soren, crossed all limits by saying saffron clad BJP leaders rape daughters.
The JMM leader Hemant Soren was speaking at the last phase of the Jharkhand Assembly Elections when he made this objectionable statement. His abuse was targeted against Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister, Yogi Adityanath, who wears saffron clothes.
Soren said, “Daughters and daughters-in-law are being burnt across the country. I came to know that Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi (Adityanath) is also touring the state (for election campaigning) wearing saffron. These are those saffron-clad BJP leaders who don’t get married but rape daughters.”
The results to the assembly election will be out on 23 December. Campaigning ends today.
