BJP president JP Nadda
Assembly elections in Jharkhand are scheduled to be held later this year. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is trying hard to return to power in the state. Home Minister Amit Shah recently visited Ranchi, from where he started a mission for the assembly elections. Now in the meantime, information has come to light that the party will not announce a CM candidate in the state. According to sources, BJP will contest the election under collective leadership.
BJP has decided that this time BJP will also field its big and powerful leaders of the state. This includes the leaders who lost the Lok Sabha elections this time. As with the Lok Sabha elections, the BJP will announce the names of its assembly candidates in Jharkhand soon, so that the candidates get full time to campaign. Also, if there is any grassroots grievance regarding the candidate, it can be resolved in time.
Full emphasis on tribal seats
BJP will prepare a different strategy in seats dominated by Santhal, Oraon, Ho, Munda tribals. State and big state leaders coming from these castes will be fielded for election campaign in these seats. BJP will strongly raise the issue of corruption against the Hemant government.

The party believes that whatever little sympathy there was with Hemant Soren coming out of jail and becoming the CM has been lost. There is also resentment in a section of the party over the removal of Champai Soren from the post of Chief Minister. BJP will also make Jharkhand’s demographic change due to Bangladeshi infiltration an election issue. BJP will also strongly raise the issue of land grabbing by Bangladeshi boys marrying Jharkhand tribal girls.
Jharkhand has 81 assembly seats. The majority figure in the assembly is 41. JMM won the 2019 elections. Soren’s party won 30 seats in the state. Congress won 16 seats. While BJP could win only 25 seats.
