Ranchi, July 31: BJP and Congress have clashed after three Congress MLAs from Jharkhand were caught with cash in West Bengal. The politicians of Jharkhand strongly reacted through Twitter.
Former Minister of Jharkhand and Independent MLA Saryu Rai demanded an ED probe into the matter and said that Jharkhand Pradesh Congress and All India Congress office bearers should clarify whether their MLAs were coming to or going from Jharkhand with the money.
आयकर विभाग और #ED को झारखंड के तीन विधायकों से बंगाल में बरामद ₹500 के नोट के बंडलों के स्रोत की जाँच करनी चाहिए. जाँच केवल बंगाल सरकार के उपर छोड़ना तर्कसंगत नहीं होगा. झारखंड की राजनीति में और राजनीतिज्ञों में पल रहे भ्रष्टाचार के कैंसर का ऑपरेशन ज़रूरी है. @narendramodi

Former Chief Minister Babulal Marandi took to Twitter to attack the three Congress MLAs caught with the money in Bengal.
“This state has been shamed in the country and the world because three Congress MLAs from Jharkhand were caught with the money in Bengal. Till now Chief Minister Hemant Soren has remained silent on whatever action has been taken by ED in Jharkhand,” he said in a tweet.
अब तक झारखंड में #ED ने जो भी कार्यवाही की है उसपर मुख्यमंत्री हेमंत सोरेन जी ने चुप्पी साधी रखी है।
अपने प्रतिनिधि और प्रेस सलाहकार पर कार्यवाही पर हेमंत जी का मौन व्रत सवालों के घेरे में है।
किसी ने सच कहा है-“मैंने बेवजह बोलते सुना है लोगों को, बेवजह कोई ख़ामोश नहीं होता”
