Jharkhand's Minority Welfare Minister Hafizul Hassan
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has slammed the Hemant Soren government in Jharkhand after one of the Ministers warned the Centre against 'messing with the minority'. The minister in the question is Hafizul Hassan who is in charge of the Minority Welfare Department.
In a video shared on the Twitter page of Jharkhand BJP chief Deepak Prakash, Hassan can be heard blaming the Centre for the recent incidents of communal violence in several states.
"Whatever the Central government is doing will cause them equal damage. We are 20 per cent, you are 70 per cent. If our 20 homes are shut, you too have to lose 70 per cent," the Minister said.
Prakash issued a strong objection to the Minister's remark and dared Chief Minister Hemant Soren to take action against Hassan.
"This is the real face of Hemant Soren government. If the Chief Minister has the courage, he should ask the minister to resign," he said.
