Champai Soren Feels 'Insulted' On Being Replaced By Hemant Soren As Jharkhand CM, Decision Likely Today
(MENAFN- Live Mint) Champai Soren is likely to resign as Chief Minister of Jharkhand to make way for Hemant Soren to takeover, months after the latter submitted his resignation before his arrest by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in a money laundering case linked to an alleged land scam.
Hemant Soren was elected legislature party leader on Wednesday, July 3, after a consensus between the MLAs and leaders of the alliance of the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM), congress and the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD).
While a decision has been taken to replace Champai Soren with Hemant Soren, according to party sources, all is supposedly not well in the JMM camp.
According to the reports, Champai Soren is feeling“insulted” with the decision taken at the JMM legislature party meet. Champai Soren is likely to submit his resignation to Jharkhand Governor this evening.
Hemant Soren is later likely to submit a letter of confidence to the Governor, showing his strength to form the government. If invited, Hemant Soren will become the 13th Chief Minister of Jharkhand.
Hemant Soren had resigned as the chief minister before his arrest on January 31. He was released from jail on June 28 after nearly five months, as the high court granted him bail in a money laundering case.
