The land of the tribals is being distributed among others in the entire state and the government is neither watching it, nor able to speak anything on this – it has just become a become a mute spectator.“Jharkhand state has deviated from the objective with which it was separated from Bihar 25 years back; neither the natives, nor the tribals are safe in this state. The demography of the state has changed, whether it is Ranchi, Gumla, Lohardaga or Kolhan, Santhal Pargana or it is Palamu region,” said Champai Soren.Therefore, said Soren, he has planned this movement as it is quite clear that the tribal lands are being looted; he can identify those lands if required, he added.“There are several villages, where not a single tribal family is left, which earlier had hundreds of tribal families. Lands are being looted even in Santhal Pargana, where there is Santhal Paragna Tenancy (SPT) Act to protect the tribal rights,” said the former Chief Minister.Therefore, ‘andolan’ (movement) is the only way out, he added.
