Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) leader Hemant Soren on Sunday met Governor Santosh Kumar Gangwar and staked claim to form the government, a day after his party-led Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) bloc swept the assembly polls, winning 56 of the state's 81 seats.
Soren, who was unanimously elected as the legislature party leader by all constituents of the INDIA bloc in the state, said he will take oath as the 14th chief minister of Jharkhand on November 28.
"I met the governor. We staked claim to form the government, and handed over support letter of alliance partners to him. He invited us to form the government. The swearing-in ceremony will be held on November 28," Soren said after meeting the governor, without disclosing who else will take oath along with him.
