JMM keeps up the fight for Soren's crown

Party makes it clear that there has been no change in its demand for reinstating Soren

PTI | May 17, 2010



Even as the BJP's dilemma over a suitable chief minister from party ranks refuses to get resolved, the impasses seems to be all set to continue with the JMM sticking to its demand of reinstating party chief Shibu Soren as the chief minister.

Senior JMM leader Champai Soren today said there was no change in their stand with regard to formation of government in Jharkhand though the party has authorised JMM supremo and Jharkhand Chief Minister, Shibu Soren to take decision on the issue.

"No, there is no change in our stand. We still want Guruji (Sibu Soren) to continue as chief minister of Jharkhand as there is no need to oust him midway", Champai Soren, MLA and senior vice-president of the party said.

All the JMM MLAs were together and wanted Guruji to remain as chief minister, Champai Soren told PTI when asked whether JMM would accept BJP to take over the charge particularly after the recent development.

BJP leadership had yesterday authorised party general secretary and former Jharkhand chief minister, Arjun Munda, to talk to coalition partners in regard with formation of government in Jharkhand.
