The Jharkhand Mukti Morcha has announced it will hold protests across Jharkhand in all districts on 27 May to put pressure on the Central Government to approve the Sarna Tribal Religious Code Bill.
Party General Secretary and spokesperson Vinod Pandey has issued an official directive to all district presidents, stating that the ‘Sarna Adivasi Dharma Code’ Bill has been pending with the Central Government for the last five years, but no concrete steps have been taken on it so far.
He said there is deep resentment among the tribal communities of the state due to this situation. Therefore, there is a need to make the voices of the people heard at the Central level.
The JMM has clarified that until the Sarna Dharma Code is recognised, the phased movement will continue with the slogan "No Census".
Earlier, the demonstration proposed on this issue for 9 May was postponed due to the tense situation between India and Pakistan. Now, the party has once again decided to raise the issue loudly.
The party has directed all district presidents, secretaries, and conveners to organise the relevant meetings and ensure preparations for the programme on 27 May.
JMM's central committee officials, MPs, MLAs, and ministers will be required to participate in this demonstration. In addition, party workers have also been instructed to be present in large numbers.
