JMM will also protest in Ranchi, where participants will fast for a day to voice their disapproval of the treatment Soren received.
Mushtaq Alam, the Ranchi District President of the party, revealed the party’s stance against the perceived harassment of Soren by the central government using the ED.
The JMM has chosen Morabadi Ground’s Bapu Vatika in Ranchi as the hunger strike’s venue, aligning with the party’s central committee’s plans.
