The Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM)-led alliance on Saturday bucked the state's political tradition of voting out the incumbent as it retained its hold over the mineral-rich province on the back of a campaign helmed by chief minister Hemant Soren, with tribal identity and welfare as its key planks.
The alliance of JMM, Congress, Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), and Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist) won 56 of the state's 81 seats, improving on its tally of 47 from five years ago. The JMM won 34 of the 43 constituencies it contested.
"We have passed the exam of democracy in Jharkhand. I express my gratitude to the people for this stupendous performance. History was made today by the installation of an Abua Raj, Abua Sarkar (our state, our government)," Soren, who won from the Barihat seat by 39,791 votes, said.
