Why BJP has pitted Gamliyel Hembrom, who lost deposit in 2019, against Hemant Soren again

New Delhi: To take on Jharkhand heavyweight Hemant Soren in Barhait, an assembly constituency that is the stronghold of the ruling Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM), the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has fielded popular football enthusiast Gamliyel Hembrom—a former teacher who is said to have left Christianity to become a tribal. Hembrom, known in Barhait for social service and organising football tournaments, has clearly not been picked for his winning prowess—he lost his security deposit in 2019 when he had squared off with Soren on an AJSU (All Jharkhand Students Union) ticket. The BJP’s selection of a Christian-turned-tribal to contest against the CM is instead rather symbolic, as the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh and its affiliates have long been running a campaign in Jharkhand against “decli...

Badminton, Bicycles & More: 5 Things To Know About Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren

It’s election season in Jharkhand, where Chief Minister Hemant Soren is looking to retain power in alliance with the Congress and the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD). The election caps a chaotic year for the state — Soren was arrested in January in a money laundering case stemming from alleged land fraud. When he was released in June, his substitute CM — Champai Soren — was asked to resign, a move that upset the latter and pushed him towards the Opposition BJP.   The ruling Mahagathbandhan of the state is trying to project Soren’s arrest as proof of the Modi government and the BJP’s “anti-tribal” attitude, and this rhetoric is bound to find pride of place in their campaign.
