Amid the ongoi🎶ng drama over Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren’s disappearance for around 40 hours when ED searched his Delhi house on Monday, speculatioღns have been rife that Soren’s Kalpana might become the next chief minister of Jharkhand.
Earlier, Hemant Soren rejected the rumors. However, now asౠ the situation intensifies, the speculations resurfaced🐓 and a comparison is drawn between Kalpana and former Rabri Devi who became Bihar CM in 1996 when Lalu Prasad was arrested.
Kalpana Soren was present at the meetings of the state's ministers and party MLAs in Ranchi on Tuesday. The meetings took place amid BJP claims that Hemant Soren absconded after th𓃲e ED did not find him in his Delhi residence. Hemant Soren reached Ranchi from Delhi by road and held two meetings. Hemant will record his statement with the ED today.
Who is Kalpana Soren?
Kalpana Soren does not hail from any political background and is originally 🌠from Odisha's Mayurbhanj district. Kalpana's father is known to be a businessman while her mother is a homemaker.
Born in Ranchi in 1946, Kalpana pursued engineer🌼ing and M꧙BA. Currently, she is involved in business, charity work and organic farming.
On February 7, 2006, Kalpana got married to Hemant Soren and they ไnow have two children- Nikhil and Ansh.
The family rift
BJP's Nishikant Dubey s🐭tated that Hemant's brother Basant Soren and sister-in-law Sita Soren have not compliඣed with the proposal of Kalpana becoming the CM. However, Heemant’s brother refuted the claim of family rift.
As Kalpana is not🦂 an MLA, her becoming the CM will need a present MLA 𝓀to vacate his or her seat.
