Leaders from the I.N.D.I.A group gathered in Ranchi with noticeable empty chairs reserved for Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and former Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren.
Congress leader Abhishek Singhvi who represents Kejriwal legally praised the I.N.D.I.A group for their unity by likening it to the concept of Ram Rajya where Lord Ram's absence was marked by his sandals placed on the throne during his exile.
The tweet of Abhishek Singhvi goes like this: "Brothers in #Ulgulan_Nyaya_Maharaili in Ranchi (Arvind Kejriwal and Hemant Soren) by leaving seats on the stage for them on their exile, the India Alliance has not only demonstrated strong organizational strength, but also manifested the vision of Ram Rajya."
Thus it can be concluded that 'Ram Rajya' slogan is also owned by Congressman! He compares Kejriwal and Soren to Ram and Laxman in exile.
Kejriwal and Soren's wives attended the event delivering messages on their behalf. Soren's wife Kalpana, spoke about Soren's determination to uphold democracy despite facing challenges from central agencies like the ED and CBI.
She also hinted at contesting the Gandey by poll. Meanwhile, Sunita Kejriwal expressed concerns about her husband's health by alleging mistreatment during his imprisonment related to the money laundering case in liquor scam.
Soren was arrested by the ED earlier leading to his resignation and Champai Soren's appointment as CM.
Similarly Kejriwal faced arrest in a separate case. Rahul Gandhi's absence due to sudden illness was noted with Mallikarjun Kharge attending on behalf of the Congress.
This rally followed a previous one in Delhi protesting Kejriwal's arrest attended by Sonia and Rahul Gandhi.
