<a href="https://www.mid-day.com/search/jharkhand-all" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Jharkhand</a> Chief Minister <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/search/hemant+soren-all" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Hemant Soren</a> on Thursday skipped summons issued by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) to face questioning in connection with a case of alleged illegal mining, and is going to Chhattisgarh to attend a tribal programme instead.
The ED had asked Soren to appear for questioning at its regional office here at 11 am but he did not go there.
"The ED has summoned me following a conspiracy. Come and arrest me if I have committed a crime instead of sending a summons for questioning. I am neither afraid nor worried. Rather I am emerging stronger. If people of Jharkhand wish, opponents will not find a place to hide," Soren said while addressing JMM workers near his residence.

He said he will fly to Raipur to attend a 'Tribal Mahotsav' during the day, for which he had received an invitation.
The JMM executive president alleged that the BJP is making attempts to destabilise his democratically elected government ever since it was voted to power.
