The meeting, proposed at the CM House, has been called to discuss strategy over the current political situation and the Enforcement Directorate's proposed questioning of Chief Minister Hemant Soren on Wednesday, he said.

 

In an email sent to ED, Soren agreed to record his statement on January 31 at 1 pm at his residence.

JMM general secretary and spokesperson Vinod Kumar Pandey told PTI that all the MLAs of the ruling alliance have been asked to stay in Ranchi in view of the current political situation.

The JMM, Congress and RJD are members of the ruling alliance.

"They will meet on Tuesday to discuss future course of action," Pandey said.

Asked if the CM has returned to Ranchi, Pandey expressed ignorance.

The ruling party legislators had remained at the residence of the chief minister till late night on Monday in the wake of the ED team visiting Soren's residence in Delhi.
