Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge said forcing Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren to resign after putting the Enforcement Directorate (ED) against him is "a blow to federalism.” Soren resigned after over seven hours of questioning by ED in a money laundering case linked to a land scam. In a post on X, Kharge said, “The one who did not go with (Narendra) Modi ji will go to jail. Putting ED against Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren and forcing him to resign is a blow to federalism.” Congress MP Rahul Gandhi also attacked the PM Modi led government. He said, “ED, CBI and the I-T Department are no longer government agencies, now they have become BJP's eliminate opposition cell.” Watch the video to know more.
