RANCHI: Jharkhand Chief Minister Shibu Soren's refusal to burn the effigy of Ravana, whom he termed as his "kulguru" and a great scholar, has put Ram Leela organisers at the state capital here in a spot, as they now have trouble finding a VIP willing to ignite the demon king's effigy this Dussehra.
After Soren's refusal the Punjabi Hindu Biradari (PHB) approached Deputy Chief Minister Sudhir Mahto, but Mahto - who belongs to the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM), same as Soren - also turned down the invitation. Mahto said that he would be in Jamshedpur with his family members that day and hence unable to do the honours.
PHB has got three invitation cards printed, each with the name of a different chief guest, but is still not sure who will finally set fire to Ravana's effigy. read
