Soren struck deal with UPA on cut motion?

New Delhi, Apr 28: Jharkhand Chief Minister Shibu Soren support to United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government in the cut motion on Tuesday, Apr 27, has sparked off speculation that Soren may have struck a deal with Congress.

Angered by the Soren's betrayal, BJP is planning to take action against the leader.

"We have taken note of it," a senior BJP leader said outside the Parliament, indicating that Soren could face trouble in the state.

"Soren has clearly ditched us. Now we are going to review our stand to support the government led by him," said BJP's state unit spokesperson Sanjay Seth.

On Tuesday, Apr 27, Soren, made a surprise appearance in the Lok Sabha to vote against his coalition party, which led to their defeat in the cut motion.

According to BJP sources, Soren may have possibly struck a deal with the Congress to make his son Hemant as the Deputy Chief Minister of Jharkhand if he votes in their favor.
