RANCHI: JMM’s Giridih MLA Sudivya Kumar on Wednesday engaged in a duel with BJP on Twitter after the former lent his support to an online campaign titled ‘Jharkhandi Yuva Mange Rojgar’.
Floated by a Twitter page named @WeareRanchi, the online campaign started on June 21, which is aimed at demanding jobs promised by the ruling parties of JMM and Congress to the state’s youth in their respective 2019 assembly election manifestos, is gaining momentum in the virtual space.
“The youngsters of Jharkhand are asking questions on the issue of jobs on various social media platforms for a few days.
I completely support their demands and the hashtag #Jharkhandi_Yuva_Mange_Rojgar,” Kumar tweeted.
Youngsters are using the hashtag to demand timely conduction of state civil services exams and other competitive exams aimed at filling up various government vacancies.
Recently,chief minister Hemant Soren’s tweet on Yoga Day was flooded with the hashtag and questions about stalled exams.
Seizing the opportunity, BJP tweeted: “The honourable MLA accepted that the JMM government has done nothing to provide employment to the state’s youngsters.
It takes courage to accept the truth.
We thank the honourable MLA,” BJP state spokesperson Pratul Shahdeo tweeted.
Responding to BJP’s statement, Kumar tweeted stating that BJP had misled the state’s Moolvasis in the name of employment.
