In a bold assertion ahead of the Jharkhand Assembly elections, Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi has confidently stated that the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) and Congress are set to form the government, dismissing claims from BJP leaders in the state. Gogoi's remarks come as residents express high satisfaction with JMM-Congress governance.
Capping off the day's activities, Congress General Secretary KC Venugopal and state in-charge Ghulam Ahmad Mir made a noteworthy arrival in Jharkhand, where they were seen engaging with local culture by playing traditional dhol drums at Ranchi airport. Venugopal reiterated the party's intention to reclaim leadership, expressing unwavering confidence in their electoral victory.
Amidst the pre-election fervor, the BJP has launched a peculiar attack on Chief Minister Hemant Soren, alleging an age discrepancy in his affidavits over the years. Soren, standing for re-election in the Barhait constituency, faces elections set for November 13 and November 20, with vote counting on November 23, fueling tension and anticipation across 81 seats in the state assembly.
