On the alleged rift in the family, Kalpana said, “There is full unity. Hemant Ji’s brother was there during my nomination for Gandey bypoll on April 29.”On her sister-in-law Sita Soren quitting the party, Kalpana said, “It was her decision to part ways with JMM and my best wishes are always with her.”Kalpana, 48, who is credited with infusing a new vigour into Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) rank and file after Soren’s arrest earlier this year, said politics has never been her choice but circumstances thrust her into it.”I will fight against injustice and dictatorial forces as bowing is not in tribal DNA. I will follow my husband’s footsteps. He chose to court imprisonment rather than compromise his values. I am his better-half and will see to it that tyrannical forces get a befitting reply,” Kalpana said.”My husband’s arrest by the ED was politically motivated and part of a plan to coerce him to join the BJP. His arrest is part of a plan by the central government to browbeat, intimidate and humiliate him but they will get a befitting reply in the elections,” she said.Kalpana filed her nomination as the JMM candidate for Gandey assembly bypoll on April 29.Voting for the seat is scheduled on May 20 along with the parliamentary elections in the state. The seat in Giridih district fell vacant following the resignation of JMM MLA Sarfaraz Ahmad.
