Jharkhand Chief Minister Raghubar Das today informed the state Assembly that his government will bring a domicile policy for the state by this year end.
Responding to the Opposition demands for a domicile policy, particularly from the JMM, Das reminded the Leader of the Opposition Hemant Soren, how he withdrew support to the erstwhile Arjun Munda government on the issue of domicile policy, but had himself failed to introduce it during his rule.
The Chief Minister said the JMM, Congress and the Jharkhand Vikas Morcha (Prajatantrik) did not give in writing about their suggestions on a domicile policy.
He asserted that his government would bring the domicile policy by this year end, keeping the local people in mind and through a consensus.
JMM MLA Jagannath Mahto, wore a shirt inscribed with a slogan 'sthaniya niti lagu karo (implement domicile policy),' trooped into the Well in support of his demand during the day, ignoring Speaker Dinesh Oraon's advice to change the shirt.
