Jharkhand failed to achieve development mission: Shibu Soren

Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) chief and former chief minister Shibu Soren said that Jharkhand failed to achieve the mission of development for which the state was formed.

Addressing a late night public meeting on 'foundation day' function in Dhanbad yesterday Soren said, "Mineral resources are being looted from Jharkhand. If it continues, the state would be bankrupt."

JMM would not compromise with policy and principle for the sake of development of Jharkhand, he said.

The deputy chief minister Hemant Soren on the occasion said the state was going on the right track.
