The election to the 81 member Jharkhand elections is just around the corner and is scheduled to take place on 13th Nov 20th november in a two phase. The votes will be counted on November 23.
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Congress and Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) are the key parties in the fray.
Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren said the JMM-led alliance will contest all 81 seats in the upcoming assembly elections.
Speaking after a central committee meeting of the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) on Monday, Soren expressed confidence in the party’s electoral preparedness and asserted that the alliance would regain power in the state.
Assembly elections are likely to be announced soon with the tenure of the Vidhan Sabha coming to an end on January 5, 2025.
