Reportedly prime minister Narendra Modi, while addressing a large gathering at Sarath assembly seat in Jharkhand’s Deoghar district on Wednesday, vowed to address the declining tribal population and infiltration in the Santhal region. He warned, accusing the JMM-Congress of facilitating this and providing infiltrators with documentation overnight “Jharkhand’s pride and identity are its greatest strengths. But if this identity is eroded, what will be left? Statistics show that the tribal population in Santhal has nearly halved. If this trend continues, your lands, forests, and water resources will be taken over by outsiders".

Meanwhile he expressed confidence that a new nda government will be formed in the state after the elections. Modi declared “The overwhelming support seen in public meetings is a clear indication that jharkhand is ready to create a new chapter in its history. After november 23, I will return to jharkhand to be present at the swearing-in of the new nda government”. PM Modi criticised congress leaders for disrespecting tribal women, questioning the silence of the JMM on these matters. He said that while the bjp elevated a tribal woman to the position of President, the congress made every effort to block her candidature.


Modi remarked “I am concerned about your children’s future because you are my family". He accused these parties of looting public resources meant for the common people to benefit their kin. PM Modi asserted that the bjp and nda had been instrumental in the creation and development of jharkhand and are committed to making it one of India’s leading states. He said “Our vision is to see Jharkhand’s flag flying high not just in the country but globally".
