A Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) leader has been arrested for alleged derogatory social media post against BJP MP and party state unit president Laxman Gilua, police said today. JMM West Singhbhum district secretary Raghunath Tiu allegedly posted the derogatory remarks on his Facebook page three days ago.

In his post, Tiu had allegedly accused Gilua, a tribal, of being "anti-Adivasi", officer-in-charge of Chakradharpur police station Gopinath Tiwary said yesterday. BJP councillor Ratan Lal Bodra filed a complaint against the JMM leader for his post, the police said.
