The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has announced details of secret meetings with Prime Minister Narendra Modi to be aggressive against the public and Chief Ministers who violate the protocol. Sources said the party has taken the decision as a counter-attack after Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren’s tweet, in which he said that PM Modi had only ‘Mann ki Baat’ over the phone.
BJP sources said that this is the second time in the last few days that the details of the call between the Prime Minister and the Chief Minister have been made public with the intention of politicizing the issues discussed during the talks. Sources said the party would use social media and other platforms to disseminate correct information and respond to any attempts to politicize such high-level meetings.
A senior BJP leader said, “Recently, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal telecasted a virtual meeting with PM Modi.”
BL Santosh took to Hemant Soren,
the national general secretary (organization) of the Ghera Party, BL Santosh, took to Twitter to denounce the details given by the CM of Jharkhand about his telephonic conversation with PM Modi. Santosh tweeted, “This is the level at which some politicians are staying. The PM called and had a detailed conversation about the COVID-19 crisis and this CM tweeted so. He has the minimum required for his post.” There is a lack of grace. ”
This is the level to which some politicians are stooping. PM calls & has detailed talk regarding COVID-19 crisis & this CM tweets so. Lacks minimum grace required for the position he holds. https://t.co/3uUmoia9nT

Earlier, Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren tweeted in Hindi, “The Prime Minister made the call today. He only spoke ‘Mann ki Baat’ during the conversation.”
The Chief Minister of Mizoram also condemned Hemant Soren,
Mizoram Chief Minister Zoramthanga and Nagaland Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio criticized Soren for this politics. Rio tweeted, “In my experience as a Chief Minister for many tenures, PM Modi has always been sensitive to the concerns of the states, especially to the people of the Northeast. I disagree with the CM of Jharkhand and would expect I am going to turn away from his statement. ”
Union Minister Arjun Munda took to social media to advise CM Soren. He said that they should take care to deal with the epidemic and do not do such petty politics which can reduce his stature as the Chief Minister of the state.
