“Everyone has the right to raise their voice against the government and BJP is not opposed to it. However, the occasion was to pay our tributes to those who had sacrificed their lives for the cause of separate statehood,” Gilua said.
The incident took place on Sunday when adivasis and moolvasis in large number led by JMM were protesting against Jharkhand government for bringing in amendment in the decades-old Chhotanagpur and Santal Paragana Tenancy Act (CNT and SPT) as well as the domicile policy.
Asked whether there was any administrative lapse that resulted in the incident, Gilua said “Certainly, there was administrative lapses, which will be probed and action would be initiated against the culprits.”
There is no question of reconsidering the amendment in the CNT and SPT, Gilua said when asked whether the government has any plan to roll back the amendment in view of the protest over the issue in Kharswan.
