Champai Soren To Take Oath As Jharkhand Chief Minister Tomorrow

9 months ago 10

Champai Soren, veteran leader of the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha will take oath tomorrow as the next Chief Minister of Jharkhand.

The 67-year-old was invited by the Governor to take oath almost 24 hours after the arrest of Hemant Soren in an alleged money laundering case.

The Governor CP Radhakrishnan's move came hours after Champai Soren met him, pleading that he be called to take oath.

"There is no government for 18 hours. There is a situation of confusion. Being the constitutional head, we expect you will soon take steps for the formation of a popular government," read his letter to the Governor.

The delay in the Governor's decision -- coupled with the slim margin in numbers -- pushed the ruling alliance to move their MLAs, fearing an impending Operation Lotus by the opposition BJP.

But the weather played spoilsport. The plane -- bound for Congress-ruled Telangana -- could not take off and late in the evening, the MLAs were taken to a government guest house in the city.
