Jharkhand Mukti Morcha MLA Sita Soren resigns from party

In a blow to the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM), Sita Soren, who is party MLA from the Jama Assembly seat from Dumka, tendered her resignation from the party on March 19, citing allegations of being sidelined along with her family.

She is also sister-in-law of former chief minister Hemant Soren who is currently in jail in connection with a money laundering case. Ms. Soren has sent her resignation letter to party chief Shibu Soren.

In the letter addressed to the party's supremo and her father-in-law, Ms. Sita expressed her grievances, stating that following the demise of her husband, Durga Soren, the party failed to provide adequate support to her and her family.
