Jugsalai MLA Mangal Kalindi addressed the gathering. He recalled that Shibu Soren led the struggle for a separate Jharkhand, rising from his village Nemra to fight for statehood. Kalindi said that the separate state was achieved due to Guruji’s relentless fight.
He added that people from all sections respect him as the messiah of Jharkhand’s tribals. “The Government of India must confer Bharat Ratna on him to give due recognition,” Kalindi said.
