Hemant Soren, the Chief Minister of Jharkhand, is currently under scrutiny at his Ranchi residence, where Enforcement Directorate (ED) agents have arrived to question him regarding a land scam case. Despite ignoring multiple ED summons in the past, Soren’s security was heightened on Wednesday.

Ahead of the scheduled 1 pm questioning, JMM organized a show of strength with MLAs gathering at the CM’s house on Kanke Road. To maintain law and order, section 144 was imposed in the vicinity of the CM’s residence to prevent any potential disruption if Hemant Soren is taken into custody later in the day.
