Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren will appear before the Enforcement Directorate today for questioning. Soren, who went 'missing' after the ED raid at his Delhi residence on Monday, reached Ranchi on Tuesday after about 40 hours and met his MLAs. Amidst all the drama in the politics of Jharkhand, BJP leader Nishikant Dubey has said that Hemant Soren can install his wife Kalpana Soren as the CM in the event of his arrest.
It is noteworthy that even before this, during the summons of ED, Hemant Soren had rejected the rumors in which there were talks of giving Kalpana the post of CM in Jharkhand. BJP had even then speculated that Hemant Soren could follow the path of Lalu Yadav in Bihar and make his wife the Chief Minister like Rabri Devi. After his arrest in Bihar in 1996, Lalu handed over the post of CM to his wife Rabri Devi.
In such a situation, it is important to know who is Kalpana Soren. What is his education? When did Hemant and Kalpana Soren get married and what work do they do currently?
1. Kalpana Soren was born in 1976 in Ranchi, Jharkhand. His father is a businessman, while his mother is a housewife.
2. Kalpana graduated in engineering, and after this, she did an MBA.
3. Kalpana has no previous political background. His family belongs to Mayurbhanj district of Odisha.
4. Kalpana and Hemant Soren were married on February 7, 2006.
5. Kalpana and Hemant Soren have two sons. Their names are Nikhil Soren and Ansh Soren.
6. Kalpana herself has been associated with business and charity work. She runs a school. She is also involved in organic farming work.
7. Kalpana Soren owns three commercial buildings, which are worth around Rs 5 crore. She has also been associated with women and child development programs.
8. Kalpana Soren first came into the limelight when former Jharkhand Chief Minister Raghubar Das alleged that Hemant Soren had wrongly allotted plots for his wife's business.
9. The allegation was that Hemant Soren misused his rights and got the land, which was part of the plot pool created for the tribals.
10. A few days ago, amid the fear of Hemant Soren going to jail, a senior JMM leader and MLA Sarfaraz Ahmed vacated his seat. After this resignation, it was believed that Hemant Soren had vacated this seat to make his wife the CM so that he could be made an MLA within six months of assuming the post.
