Following the arrest of ex-Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren by the ED for his alleged role in a money laundering case , the fiasco that has followed has raised numerous questions for the opposition alliance leading up to the 2024 elections. BJP's 'washing machine politics' and its exercised control over the Enforcement Directorate, have been criticised by the INDIA coalition as a ploy to strategically obliterate the Opposition's presence in the non-BJP ruled states. However, Soren's arrest triggers a conversation on INDIA bloc's momentum in the crucial prelude to the upcoming elections.
