JMM Coalition Wrests Jharkhand

The Jharkhand Mukti Morcha ( JMM)-led alliance on Monday is on course to post a convincing victory in the Assembly election, handing a crushing defeat to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which has lost another State after the recent setback in Maharashtra.

The JMM, the Congress, and the Rashtriya Janata Dal crossed the halfway mark in the 81-seat Assembly by a comfortable margin. The JMM and the Congress also emerged victorious in 47 seats — their highest-ever tally of seats won individually since the formation of Jharkhand in 2000.

In this process, the JMM also became the single largest party with 30 seats, pushing the BJP to second position with 25 seats compared to 37 in 2014. The Congress increased its tally to 16 compared to six in 2014.

Interestingly, over 33.4% of the votes went in favour of the BJP while the JMM and the Congress polled 18.7% and 13.9% votes respectively.
