He is one of the important leaders of INDIA bloc. His release will strengthen the INDIA bloc so that the undemocratic right-wing forces are defeated and the rights of people are safeguarded.»
JMM MP Mahua Maji said that after 2014, there was a BJP government in the state and Hemant Soren conducted several rallies. People supported him and he formed the government.
Mahua Maji said, «Hemant Soren is a very popular leader in Jharkhand. Despite his absence in the Lok Sabha elections, the public supported us.
