Radhakrishna Kishore, the senior most Congress minister and Finance Minister in the Jharkhand government, has withdrawn his security. There was a dispute with the authorities regarding government associates, after which he sent back 16 of his associates, also taking back the documents provided for security. This incident has sparked a new discussion in the politics and material of the state.
In fact, on April 21, 2026, the Finance Minister had given a letter to the princely state of Jharkhand to recruit in its security, an additional vehicle was provided for 16 associates. The minister said that they already have only three vehicles, in which it is difficult to accommodate all the security personnel. This also affects the security system.
However, in lieu of additional vehicle supply, Joint Secretary of Finance Department, Pankaj Kumar Singh has sent a notice to the private secretary of the minister. The notice quoted an order of the year 2022 saying that one of the three society vehicles provided by the minister should be taken back to the police headquarters.
Angered by this notice, the Finance Minister wrote a letter to the princely state on June 29, saying that such action had caused him public embarrassment. In such a situation, he is withdrawing the entire police force and the facilities available to him for his protection. Now he has kept only one vehicle with him, which has been provided to him by the Finance Department.
Radhakrishna Kishore, while talking to the media, confirmed that he has given back his security. However, he rejected the entire reason for the controversy and said that he should come on time. He said, ‘If the public and my artists ask, I will tell the whole thing.’ This matter is between me, the Finance Department and the Police Headquarters. ‘This has no connection with Chief Minister Russell Soren.’
He said that he had come from an area like Palamu and was also seen in that period when there was constant standoff between the police and the police. He said that his biggest security lies in his faith in God. He said, “As long as God has written life, nothing can happen. If death is written, then something can happen in security also.” During this, he also revealed an incident of terrorism, in which a person was allegedly murdered outside.
The minister also said that he does not feel the need to cooperate with big security buildings or religious places with large crowds like in Bihar.
