BJP State President and former Chief Minister Babulal Marandi on Sunday sta on day long dharna along with various tribal organizations in Morhabadi ground against the loot of tribal land by land mafias. Marandi also addressed the gathering stating that in the last five years, hundreds of acres of Raiyati land of poor tribals have been acquired by land mafias by openly violating the CNT SPT Act under the protection of the JMM Congress government. He said that after independence, factories were opened, mines and dams were built under the Congress government, which led to large-scale displacement of tribals. Villages were destroyed but the Congress party did not worry about the rehabilitation of the displaced people. Due to displacement, the population of tribals kept decreasing. He said that those who are guilty of this are calling themselves well-wishers of the tribals. But they are not taking any initiative to solve this problem. He said that today the tribal society is in danger through land jihad, love jihad along with land mafia and the people sitting in power in the state are protecting them. In such a situation, every kind of conspiracy is being hatched to reduce the population of tribals. He said that in such a situation, after delimitation, the number of assembly and Lok Sabha seats of tribals will decrease. He assured various tribal organizations that he is with them in their fight. He said that those who are cheating the tribal society in the name of tribals are criminals, they deserve punishment, the public will definitely punish them. He said that the state government should explain how the mutation of the land taken by land mafias from tribals is done? Why action is not taken against the guilty officials? He again reiterated that it is clear from this that the state government is protecting the land mafias.
