00:00If we talk about Jharkhand, the issue of religious polarization has always been there.

00:06Hemanshwar and Vaishnav have been placed there for the same purpose.

00:11See, how you can place a constitution there.

00:15Apart from this, Jharkhand is also a mineral rich state.

00:19What do you think about these emotive issues?

00:23Apart from this, what are the real issues that matter to the people of Jharkhand in these elections?

00:32See, wherever in the world the minerals are found,

00:40we often see that there is some kind of political instability.

00:47Now, at many times, it becomes very serious, as you can say in African countries.

00:53And many times, it still happens in a way, but you cannot say that it has become violent.

01:05So, if we look at Jharkhand, there are a lot of minerals,

01:08there is also a lot of industrialization scope,

01:10but still, we find that economic growth and development is not as much there.

01:17What is the reason for this? Social prosperity.

01:19Jharkhand is a very divided state,

01:22in which tribal and non-tribal issues are often discussed.

01:28It is often about the people of the state versus the outsiders.

01:32Now, there is a new angle that whether Bangladeshis are living there or Rohingyas are living there.

01:39So, whichever place is full of minerals, it will have this aspect.

01:46But the point is, what should be the issue in the election?

01:50According to me, the biggest and most important thing in Jharkhand's current political situation

01:59is the political party, which can bring as many people as possible.

02:04See, this is contrary to what is being said.

02:07See, there are parties on one side, who will do dhruvikaran of tribal and non-tribal.

02:13The second party will do dhruvikaran on religion,

02:17and the third party will try to do dhruvikaran on caste.

02:21So, everyone will do dhruvikaran in one way or another.

02:24The question will arise, whose dhruvikaran can be said to be less toxic,

02:30and will affect the maximum number of people.

02:33It is not that you have a good choice and others are very bad.

02:40No, the point is, who will give you less pain and maybe they will win.

02:52Okay, let's hope for better politics.

02:56For the future of politics, our politics is outside of toxicity.
