MSP hike, million jobs in 7 Jharkhand pledges by INDIA

Flanked by alliance partners Jharkhand Mukti Morcha, Rashtriya Janata Dal and Communist Party of India-Marxist Leninist, Congress chief Mallikarjuna Kharge released the "Ek Vote, Saat Guarantee", underlining that the Congress and its allies have history of fulfilling all commitments they made to people in the past.

"This is an outline for giving direction to the state. We are in power now. Despite several challenges, The Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance alliance government led by me has drawn a line of development which is unprecedented. The opposition got maximum chance to rule, but they made the state directionless," said chief minister Hemant Soren.

The manifesto promised to implement a 1932-land record based domicile (only who have name in land records up to 1932 would be considered as local), the Sarna code and the preservation of regional language, culture.

The JMM and allies have been demanding a separate religious code for tribals in upcoming census.

The Jharkhand assembly has passed a unanimous resolution for Sarna Code and sent to Centre.
