Jharkhand Chief Minsiter Pitches for Tribals Development,PM Modi Jharkhand Chief Minsiter Pitches For Tribals Development Chief Minister Raghubar Das has pitched in for development of tribals, saying Jharkhand is a tribal State and it can develop only when tribals are developed. He was speaking at the inaugural session of BJP’s ST Morcha meet at Jaina More in Bokaro on Saturday. Das said that the State could not be developed by developing cities like Tata, Bokaro, Dhanbad. The real growth will come only when villages are developed. “Development of the State on all fronts is the only agenda of the government. In a bid to prevent migration from villages, our government is focusing to set up small, medium and micro industries. Through the Global Investors Summit, focus has been accorded on setting up of medium, small and rural industries so that unemployment problem can be addressed,” added the CM. “Several national and international investors have showed their interest in the area of agriculture, food processing, textiles, higher education and healthcare,” the CM said. “The State government cannot provide employment to everyone, so Mukhyamantri Udyami Board has been constituted and the government will ensure imparting skill development training to the unemployed youth. There are tremendous growth opportunities in the lac and silk sector in the State,” he added. The CM said that Adim Janjati Vikas Pradhikaran has been constituted for the development of primitive tribes. Das urged the party workers to reach out to the tribals and make them aware of their rights and ensure that they are getting the benefits of all government sponsored schemes. “In the State budget, separate funds were allotted for the development of the Scheduled Tribes (ST) and Scheduled Castes (SC). A total of `22,259 crore was granted for special schemes related to their upliftment,” the CM said. “Apart from agriculture, education and skill development and rural development, the budget also laid emphasis on women empowerment and infrastructure – electricity, roads, communication (including civil aviation and railways),” he said. Others present on the occasion included Sports Minister Amar Kumar Bauri, Giridih MP Ravindra Pandey, and MLAs Ram Kumar Pahan, Gangotri Kujur, Viranchi Narayan, and Laxman Tuddu.

Ias Official Lands In Jail For Jobs Scam In Bihar Bihar Staff Selection Commission (BSSC) chairman Sudhir Kumar, a 1987-batch IAS officer, was arrested on Friday for alleged involvement in the job scam that had rocked the state earlier this month. He was later taken to Beur Central Jail, on Patna’s outskirts. The bureaucrat’s brother, Awadesh Kumar, and sister’s son, Ashish Kumar, along with Awadhesh’s wife, Manju Devi, were also arrested. Awadhesh is a geography professor at the premier Patna Women’s College. “We have also taken into custody Ashish’s friend Sajjad Ahmed and BSSC’s IT manager Niti Pratap Singh,” said Patna SSP Manu Maharaaj, who is heading a special investigation team (SIT) formed at chief minister Nitish Kumar’s behest to probe the leak of questions for the four- phase examinations for 13,120 Intermediate-level clerical vacancies. The examinations, scheduled for January-February this year, were scrapped after the questions started doing the rounds on WhatsApp. “We have evidence to suggest the IAS official made available two sets of question papers and answer keys to his five kin. They were among the 18.5 lakh job aspirants who had applied for the examinations,” Maharaaj told newsmen. Sources said police had procured a warrant of arrest from a Patna court against the bureaucrat on Thursday after he misled them about the question setter and the location of the printing press where the questions were printed. During two rounds of interrogation earlier, Sudhir told the SIT the questions had been set by an IIT-Delhi professor. “Our inquiries revealed the professor didn’t set questions,” a police officer said, adding Sudhir, after the second round of questioning, went on three days’ leave from Monday but did not resume duty on Thursday.
