BJP has pulled out its big guns, Modi & Shah, in Jharkhand, while Congress has been slow to start, leaving JMM’s Hemant & Kalpana Soren to carry the campaign on their shoulders.
Kalpana Soren, who emerged as a star campaigner for JMM after her husband Hemant Soren was arrested by ED, is elected to Jharkhand assembly, defeating BJP's Dilip Kumar Verma.
The seat, considered JMM bastion, remained with the party despite Modi wave in 2014 & 2019. But BJP is doing everything it can to wrest the seat this time.
