New twist in Hemant Soren’s case! Found on the 8.5 acres of land for which the arrest was made
ED has sought complete information from Jharkhand Bijli Vitran Nigam Limited (JBVNL) about in whose name the two electricity meters are on the disputed 8.5 acre land located in Bariatu of Badgai area. Regarding this, ED has issued a notice to JBVNL and has sought a reply soon.
JBVNL has sent a letter to the General Manager of Ranchi asking him to provide details in this matter. However, till now ED has not received any reply regarding this. New electricity connection is available only on the basis of house documents like deed, holding etc.
