JAMSHEDPUR: Founder president of

(JPP) Surya Singh Besra in a

on Friday said those who live in Jharkhand have to say "Jai Jharkhand" and those who chant "

" have to leave the state.

The tribal leader, who shot to fame during the

as student leader, in another post in the social media has tried to ignite the fire of Moolvasi of Jharkhand. Former MLA from Ghatshila Besra, the founder of AJSU, which later became AJSU-P under the leadership of Sudesh Mahato, in the FB post said those living in Jharkhand from 1932 onwards are moolvasis and they only have the right to live here.

Notably, Jharkhand was carved out of erstwhile Bihar in November 15, 2000 by then PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee.

Talking to TOI on Friday Besra, who had once quit his MLA post in 1991 when then CM of Bihar

had said Jharkhand would be carved on his dead body said, tribals have fought for more than 50 years to get a separate state and now a non-tribal sits on the CM’s chair in Jharkhand. Lashing out at Raghubar Das, Besra questioned how can a non-tribal rule over tribals. He even hit out at the recent chanting of "Jai Shri Ram" in the assembly by few BJP netas.

Besra, even lashed out at the Biharis living in Jharkhand. He said in the FB post that "Majhi, Mahato bhai bhai, bahari Bihari bye bye" (Manjhis and Mahatos are brothers but Biharis are outsiders. He even said villages should be ruled by "manki-munda" (a sort of tribal panchayat) system and not be outsiders. He has even expressed his desire to become the CM of Jharkhand for one day.

It may be recalled that in the recent past this leader had demanded that coming assembly polls in Jharkhand should be conducted with the help of ballot boxes and EVMs should be banned.

It may be mentioned here that Besra had once come close to BJP and contested on their party ticket from Ghatshila reserved seat which he failed to win.

Meanwhile, the FB post of Besra has come under severe criticism in the social media itself. People have abused him for playing such divisive politics
