Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge also greeted Soren on his birthday.

“We wish him a long life and good health. INDIA bloc is fighting together for social justice, economic empowerment and inclusive development in the country,” he said in a post on X.

Soren, who is also the executive president of the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM), turned 49 on Saturday.
