Jharkhand BJP chief's son accused of marrying 11-year-old

Jharkhand BJP President Tala Marandi's son Munna Marandi has allegedly married an 11-year-old girl days after reports of him sexually exploiting a girl for over two years had surfaced.

Jharkhand BJP President Tala Marandi's son Munna Marandi has allegedly married an 11-year-old girl days after reports of him sexually exploiting a girl for over two years had surfaced.

After learning about his marriage, the girl who Munna had sexually exploited on the promise of getting married, has filed a police complain. She also said that Munna had gifted her a swanky mobile phone to be in touch with her and used her sexually, later on marrying someone else.

The alleged marriage was reportedly solemnised on Tuesday with a girl who is only 11 years old. The girl has also approached the Jharkhand Women Commission on Wednesday.

Jharkhand Chief Minister Raghubar Das cancelled his scheduled appearance at the wedding reception in Godda on Wednesday despite the fact that he was in the district on that day.

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which rules the state, has so far been silent on the issue, while the opposition parties have demanded an enquiry.

"The BJP should sack the state president and a fair probe should be instituted to investigate the allegations of sexual exploitation and marriage with a minor girl," Alok Dubey, General Secretary of Jharkhand unit of the Congress, told news reporters.

A Santhal tribal leader, Tala Marandi was appointed the president of the Jharkhand unit of the BJP last month.

He represents Borio Assembly constituency in Sahibganj district.
