Since Narendra Modi became the Prime Minister of India, in 2014, he has visited Jharkhand, many times and launched major schemes from the tribal-dominated state, including Ayushman Bharat.

On September 12, too, PM Modi chose to launch the farmer pension scheme—Kisan Maan Dhan Yojana from here. But, this visit of Modi was different, as apart from Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders and Chief Minister of Jharkhand, Raghubar Das, the Deputy Commissioners of different districts of Jharkhand were welcoming the Prime Minister, and highlighting Jharkhand government’s progress in different welfare schemes.

The opposition parties and leaders, especially Jharkhand Mukhti Morcha (JMM) and former Chief Minister Hemant Soren, tagged the IAS Association and sought their intervention questioning how officers were compromising with the Constitution and betraying the country.

eNewsroom tried contacting Deputy Commissioner Giridih Rahul Sinha and sent a message too, but is yet to get a reply from him. Later, his number was found switched off.

Some officials not just tweeted to praise the PM but also forced private schools to lend their buses to ferry farmers. Such dictates were given in Bokaro, too. Times of India did a story that in Ranchi, a large number of schools gave off and cancelled the exam scheduled for September 12 as buses had been sent to ferry farmers and participants from various places to attend the PM’s rally.
