Khan’s audio threat is political ploy: Babulal

Jamshedpur: BJP state president Babulal Marandi said the purported viral audio of gangster Prince Khan threatening Jamshedpur East MLA Saryu Roy and his aide and Dhanbad businessman, Krishna Agarwal, for raising voice against BJP’s candidate in Dhanbad, Dulu Mahato, is a political ploy of the opponent parties.
He demanded a thorough probe into the matter stating that neither Baghmara MLA Dulu Mahato nor any karyakarta of BJP have any link with the gangster.
Stating that the candidature of Mahato for the Dhanbad Lok Sabha constituency has annoyed some, Marandi said, “I see a conspiracy behind the viral audio episode against Dulu Mahato.”
The BJP president was talking to the media in Seraikela following the meeting of the party workers of the Seraikela assembly segment.
The BJP president said that Geeta Koda, who is the party’s nominee for the Singhbhum Lok Sabha seat, is receiving enormous support from the party leaders and workers. “The BJP will register thumping victory in the Singhbhum seat,” Marandi said.
Further, he said in all 14 parliament constituencies in the state, the opposition INDIA has no match to the NDA candidates. “Together, NDA will win all the 14 Lok Sabha seats,” Marandi said.
Earlier, the party leader took stock of the organisational preparedness for the May 13 elections in on Singhbhum seat.
Addressing party workers at the Seraikela-Kharsawan district BJP office, Marandi, encouraged karyakartas to work cohesively to attain the ambitious 400 plus seats target of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The Congress turncoat, and outgoing MP, Geeta Koda, and her husband and former CM Madhu Koda, among other party leaders, attended the meeting.
