Jharkhand Has Become Byword For Lawlessness, Says JP Nadda

Attacking the JMM-Congress government in Jharkhand, BJP president J.P. Nadda on Tuesday said the state has become a byword for “lawlessness” under its rule, with naxalism rife and corruption becoming an “industry”.

Addressing state BJP leaders at an digital event to inaugurate party office in eight districts, he asked them to work democratically to remove the coalition government, which had come to power in December last, “lock, stock and barrel.”

“When I read news of Jharkhand now, reports of naxalism, daylight kidnapping and murder, and robbery are rife. Jharkhand has become a byword for lawlessness. The menace of naxalism, which was almost over, has become rampant,” Mr. Nadda said.
