JMM has floated ‘Jharkhand Batega Nahi, Adiwasi Hatega Nahi’ slogan to turn the tables on BJP, which has been harping on changing demographics in tribal-dominated Santhal Pargana.
Tuhin A. Sinha and Suraj Prasad’s latest historical novel, Sido Kanhu: The Santhal Hul, Bharat’s First War of Independence’, was recently launched at Delhi’s Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts.

Residents of Jharkhand are not willing to work in the mines. The job is a very dangerous one and the work conditions are pathetic to say the least. The pay is meagre and the environment in the mines is toxic. No wonder no one wishes to work in these mines.
However, the Bangladeshi infiltrator is an exception. Driven by poverty and hunger, he is willing to work the dangerous mines on a meagre wage. Hence, mine owners are very happy to facilitate his arrival and presence in Jharkhand. And most importantly, this suits the Left-liberal political parties (JMM, Congress) as this increases their votebank.
This nexus of mining corporates and Left-liberal political parties is responsible for the large scale demographic change in Jharkhand’s population. Smuggling people in from Bangladesh and settling them in Jharkhand has become an industry and has the blessings of the corporate-political mafia.
