Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan announced on Sunday that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) aims to seize power in Jharkhand by dethroning the 'corrupt' Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM)-led coalition government. Chouhan, alongside Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, who co-chairs BJP's election campaign for the state, strategized with party leaders, legislators, and workers in Ranchi as they gear up for the assembly elections slated for later this year.

Chouhan highlighted BJP's commendable performance in the recent Lok Sabha elections in Jharkhand, where the party secured eight seats, and its ally AJSU Party won one. He lauded the party leadership and grassroots workers for their efforts, noting that BJP had leads in 52 out of the 81 assembly seats in the state parliamentary polls. 'This was a significant contribution towards securing Prime Minister Narendra Modi's third term,' Chouhan remarked.

Addressing the alleged corruption under the current regime, Chouhan claimed, 'There is rampant corruption across various sectors such as sand, coal, and minerals. The chief minister is in jail with several leaders facing corruption charges.' He stressed the need to restore good governance under BJP to transform Jharkhand into a developed state. Assam CM Sarma reinforced BJP's confidence, declaring that their recent leads would translate to a sweeping victory in the forthcoming assembly elections.
