Remembering 'Dishom Guru': Shibu Soren's Legacy in Tribal Rights

Sikkim Governor Om Prakash Mathur has expressed profound sorrow at the passing of Shibu Soren, a key figure in Indian politics known for championing tribal rights. Soren, who was suffering from kidney-related ailments, died at the age of 81 on Monday morning.

Fondly referred to as 'Dishom Guru', Soren was instrumental in the tribal rights movement and played a pivotal role in the creation of Jharkhand as a separate state. As a senior political leader, his contributions have left a lasting impact on the residents of Jharkhand and the marginalized communities he supported.

Mathur conveyed his condolences, acknowledging Soren's dedication to the cause of tribal and marginalized people and praying for strength for his family and supporters during this difficult time. Soren's passing marks the end of an era in Jharkhand's political landscape.
