`Soren playing into hands of communal BJP'

RANCHI, MARCH 1: The BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) has once again conspired to put a cap on the age-old movement for a separate state by roping in the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (Soren) to form the next government in Bihar. Stating this, JMM (Munda) vice-president and former Jharkhand Area Autonomous Council (JAAC) vice-president Suraj Mandal said here today that the support bore ample testimony to the fact that Soren was playing into the hands of the communal BJP.

Soren had once again betrayed the people of Jharkhand by supporting a coalition, which, on assuming power, would delay the creation of the separate state, he alleged. The BJP, which had allegedly conspired to split the Jharkhand-named parties, including the JMM, had finally succeeded in its design by saffronising Soren and his twelve Morcha (S) representatives.
