Ranchi, 19 March (IANS). Jharkhand Health Minister Irfan Ansari has accused the central government of stopping the funds of the state.

He said that the government led by Hemant Soren is committed to the development of the state. If the central government had paid the arrears of one lakh 36 thousand crore rupees, then we would not have to take loans.
Congress MLA Ansari said, “Our Chief Minister is constantly asking for money from the Center for the rights of the tribals of the state and the people here. Many letters have been written to the central government, but the amount is not being released.”
The minister claimed that within the next five years, Jharkhand would stand on his feet completely. He said, “We are going to build a Jharkhand where everyone will be respected.”
He accused the Bharatiya Janata Party of discriminatory politics and said that his job is only to do Hindu-Muslims.
Reacting to the demand for NRC in the state on behalf of the Leader of Opposition Babulal Marandi, Leader of Jharkhand Assembly, Irfan Ansari said that Marandi ji is personally secular mooded person, but he is compulsion that he is reading the script given by the BJP.
He challenged Marandi and said that if he shows a single Bangladeshi in Jharkhand, I will resign “. BJP leaders have maligned the Muslims of Jharkhand by saying false talk of Bangladeshi infiltration. When our children go to school, they are being called Bangladeshi. This is very unfortunate.
