It seems that 2024 will be a year of surprises for the Congress party. District presidents are now quitting their positions and joining the BJP, following the departure of Congress leaders at the national and state levels. On Wednesday, Harimohan Mishra, the Congress President for Jamtara District, also quit and joined the BJP. In front of BJP State President Babulal Marandi at Jamshedpur Circuit House, he accepted the party’s membership.
He was congratulated and welcomed into the BJP by Babulal Marandi. Harimohan Mishra remarked, “I have always received good respect in the Congress party in reference to his resignation. At the national level, the Congress is a very good party, but it is being destroyed by the way that former MP Purkan Ansari and current Jamtara MLA Dr. Irfan Ansari operate.” In his letter of resignation, he stated that the father and son had turned the Jamtara district into a pocket money for Congress. In this instance, neither the organisation nor its representatives are given much weight. He has written that the father acts as a middleman and the brother completes the contract, all the while launching a vicious attack on MLA Irfan Ansari. Individuals who associate with them are valued, while those who do not comply are ostracised.
The situation of the party in the entire Santhal Pargana, including Jamtara, is the result of these two fathers and their sons. He claimed that the MLA’s primary activities are commission fraud and the exploitation of tribe members. He claimed that Jamtara MLA is not a Muslim or a Hindu. They have defrauded followers of both faiths.
Together with Harimohan Mishra, employees who held positions as block president, vice president, district general general, district vice president, mandal president, etc., also quit and joined the BJP. Most notably, Mustafa Ansari, Tarakeshwar Singh, Vikrant Singh, Aslam Ansari, Yuvraj Singh, Vivekananda Singh, Tarakeshwar Singh, Baby Paswan, and others left their positions and joined the BJP.
