If they say no wrong is done then why do they run away from investigating agencies: Babulal Marandi

SANJAY PANDEY

Ranchi:  Babulal Marandi, the BJP State President and former Chief Minister, has raised significant concerns about the Soren family and the ruling authorities in the state. Applauding the Delhi High Court's decision to investigate the alleged illegal accumulation of wealth by the Soren family, Marandi emphasized the importance of Lokpal in eradicating corruption. He questioned why those who claim innocence hesitate to face investigative agencies and run to the High Court and Supreme Court to halt the investigations.

Marandi pointed out the historical association of corruption with Congress, JMM, and RJD, accusing them while asserting that BJP faces allegations but does not shy away from investigations. He questioned the Soren family's contradiction of claiming innocence while avoiding scrutiny by investigative agencies. Marandi welcomed the court's decision, stating that although delayed, it is a positive outcome.
