The chief minister had last visited Uliyan to pay tributes to the mausoleum of the slain JMM leader on his death anniversary in 2019. He had to skip the death anniversary of the JMM leader during the last two years due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
The chief minister recalled the slain leader’s contribution to the Jharkhand movement.
People from various walks of life and political leaders cutting all party lines thronged the venue at Kadma since morning to pay tributes to Nirmal Mahato on his death anniversary.
The party leaders appealed to people to follow the ideology of Nirmal Mahato, who had led the struggle for the creation of a separate state for the development of tribals of this region.
