On his birthday, Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren took to social media to share a poignant reflection on the past year, marked by a prisoner's stamp on his hand. This stamp, which he received upon his release from Birsa Munda Jail after being granted bail in a money laundering case, symbolizes, according to Soren, the current challenges in Indian democracy.

Soren, who served 150 days in jail despite no proof or formal complaint, used his birthday post to highlight systemic issues affecting common tribals, dalits, and other oppressed groups. He pointed to his own experience as an elected chief minister as a testament to the grave injustices and challenges faced by marginalized communities in India.

Vowing to fight even more vigorously for the rights of the exploited and deprived, Soren emphasized his commitment to justice and unity. He called for building a society where laws are applied equally and power is not misused. Soren urged solidarity and collective effort to tackle the hard path ahead, reaffirming that the strength of the country lies in its unity and diversity.
