Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a scathing attack on the ruling INDIA allies Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) and Congress while addressing a public rally in poll-bound Jharkhand’s Deoghar on Wednesday and said the state government had allowed infiltrators to grab land and abuse tribal women.

Addressing people at Deoghar’s Sarath, the Prime Minister said, “Wherever I have travelled in Jharkhand, the biggest worry has been about infiltration. As per the data available, the tribal population in Santhal has reduced to half. We have to protect our tribal families and every Jharkhandi from this.”

“There is a huge conspiracy being done to change the identity of Jharkhand. Under JMM-Congress, every wrong thing was done to make these infiltrators permanent residents in the state. These infiltrators snatched your jobs and ‘roti’. JMM government said in court that there has been infiltration in the state. The protection of Roti, Beti, and Maati is the biggest issue in this election. I assure you that BJP will protect them,” he added.
