Just Like Aryan Khan, I’m A Victim Of Made-Up Case: Jharkhand CM

New Delhi: The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) giving Aryan Khan a clean chit in the drugs-on-cruise case has opened a Pandora’s box.

No sufficient evidence was found against Shah Rukh Khan’s son, who was arrested last October by NCB following a raid on Cordelia cruise ship in Mumbai.

Now, Jharkhand chief minister Hemant Soren has said that he’s a victim of BJP’s vendetta politics.

Soren is under Enforcement Directorate (ED) scanner over a case pertaining to alleged irregularities in the grant of mining lease.

“Just like Aryan Khan, who was found to be the victim of a made-up case, that’s how I see the ED case against me. Neither on ED’s site nor publicly have they been able to say what they have found or the progress of the case,” Soren told newspersons on Sunday after meeting Congress president Sonia Gandhi.

“The ED is investigating the MGNREGA scam in two districts of the state. I don’t understand how the agency officials have done so without even visiting those places or questioning relevant officials. They don’t want to probe deeper, they just want to use to their ends,” he claimed.

Soren further said that just like excavations at Mohenjodaro, BJP is interested in digging temples and mosques.

“This case is 14 years old. They are interested in 500-year-old cases,” he added.

Soren defended himself saying that his government hasn’t auctioned iron or major minerals since coming to power.

“All the mine owners are non-Jharkhandis,” he claimed.
