The dispute between Congress and Jharkhand Mukti Morcha has increased over the Rajya Sabha elections. In fact, party leader Mahua Maji has been declared a candidate for the Rajya Sabha by JMM, while Congress wanted to field its candidate here. It is being told that in such a situation, the state leadership of Congress has become angry with JMM due to not getting Rajya Sabha seat. Meanwhile, Congress state in-charge Avinash Pandey has called a meeting of MLAs and senior leaders. This meeting will be held in Ranchi today.

According to the information, before the meeting to be held today, Aninash Pandey met Congress President Sonia Gandhi on Monday. During this, he put the displeasure of the state leaders in front of him. It is being told that today’s meeting has been called on the instructions of Sonia Gandhi. Jharkhand Congress in-charge Avinash Pandey said that JMM has announced its candidate for the Rajya Sabha elections. Our idea was that all the allies of the alliance should unanimously agree on one name and make him a candidate. Congress wanted to field its candidate for Rajya Sabha this time.

Alliance religion should be followed from both sides
Congress MLA Amba Prasad has said that Congress has always fulfilled its alliance duty. It is a matter of great desperation for us that despite what he had talked to Sonia Gandhi, he declared his candidate. He had come after talking, there some more agreement was made and after coming here he took his decision. Coalition dharma should continue from both the sides. We hope that whatever differences there are, they are fine so that it does not affect the state.

Congress wanted to field its candidate
Congress wanted to field its candidate from Jharkhand for the Rajya Sabha elections. Congress said that JMM supremo Shibu Soren was sent to Rajya Sabha in the last Rajya Sabha elections. In such a situation, this time the Congress candidate should be sent to the Upper House. The Congress could not win this seat alone on the basis of numbers, so the party leadership wanted the JMM to support the Congress candidate in the coalition government. There was also a long meeting between Sonia Gandhi and CM Hemant Soren regarding this. However, later Soren announced the candidature of party leader Mahua Maji.

Congress can withdraw support
At present there is a coalition government in Jharkhand. There are speculations that the Congress, which is angry about the Rajya Sabha candidate, may withdraw its support to the JMM. If this happens then Hemant Soren’s government may fall. At the same time, Hemant Soren says that I like to talk directly, but am now tied to the alliance, which should be respected.
