The poll review committee of the Jharkhand Congress commenced an evaluation on Thursday of the party's performance in the five Lok Sabha seats where it faced defeat. Despite securing only two out of 14 seats, the INDIA bloc, which includes Congress, won five seats overall, with the BJP sweeping the remaining nine.

Chaired by President Pradeep Balmuchu, the committee discussed the reasons for the party's defeat in the Godda seat with local party workers at the district headquarters. 'We have started reviewing the poll debacle in the five seats. The panel will submit its report to the high command,' Balmuchu announced.

District Congress President Dinesh Prasad Yadav highlighted that 'money power prevailed over manpower' during the elections. Meanwhile, state Congress spokesperson Sonal Shanti noted that the review process for the remaining seats has been rescheduled. He also mentioned upcoming statewide demonstrations over a NEET paper leak and a crucial meeting on June 24 under the chairmanship of the party's national president regarding the forthcoming assembly polls in Jharkhand.
