    Jairam Ramesh on Jharkhand election results

    "I want to congratulate the people of Jharkhand, because they have shown a new way to the country, they rejected the politics of polarisation, what not were said during political campaigns by Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma, UP CM Yogi Adityanath, Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan, and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The whole election was fought on one word- infiltrators. They tried to create fear, but people responded in a decisive manner. It is also a positive message for the entire country that the politics of polarisation can be defeated. In Maharashtra, without a doubt, in a targeted manner, the level playing field, the word that ECI uses, was disturbed. The results have come, and it is unexpected in Maharashtra," says Jairam Ramesh.

    Jharkhand Election Results 2024 Live Updates: Can Hemant Soren lead INDIA bloc to victory?

    Election Results Jharkhand Live Updates:
    • Saturday's counting is expected to reflect how well Hemant Soren's government welfare schemes, like the Maiya Samman Yojana, Abua Awas Yojana, universal pensions for the elderly, widows, and differently abled, as well as the old pension scheme for state employees, have been received. It’s also seen as a test of Hemant's popularity, especially after his arrest by the ED and a five-month jail term earlier this year for a land scam case.
    • This election comes shortly after the Lok Sabha polls, where the NDA secured nine out of 14 seats in the state, while the INDIA bloc managed only five. It’s also happening three months after Hemant returned as chief minister on July 4, replacing his uncle, Champai Soren. Champai later switched sides to join the BJP, seemingly upset with Hemant’s leadership.
    • The BJP, along with its allies Ajsu-P, JD(U), and LJP (R), has focused its campaign on allegations of corruption, exam paper leaks, and the deaths of candidates during excise department recruitments under Hemant’s government. A major theme in their campaign was the alleged demographic changes in tribal areas due to illegal Bangladeshi immigrants. Star campaigners like Narendra Modi, Yogi Adityanath, and Amit Shah took sharp jabs at the JMM-Congress alliance. Modi and Yogi raised slogans like “Unity brings safety” and “Divide, and you’ll suffer.”
    • The BJP contested 68 seats, Ajsu-P took 10, JD(U) went for two, and LJP (R) contested one. On the INDIA bloc side, JMM contested 43 seats, Congress fielded candidates for 30, while RJD and CPI-ML contested four seats each.
    • A significant turnout of women voters suggests that promises like INDIA bloc’s increased monthly stipends under the Maiya Samman Yojana and BJP’s 'Go Go Didi Yojana' resonated with them. Rahul Gandhi and other INDIA bloc leaders tried to win votes by promising a caste census and increasing the reservation cap beyond 50%.
    • "We’ve respected and empowered women over the last five years and shared a clear vision for Jharkhand. Unlike the BJP, we avoided baseless claims in our campaign, and we’re confident of a positive result tomorrow," said Ghulam Ahmed Mir, Congress’s Jharkhand in-charge, on Friday.
    • BJP spokesperson Ajay Shah claimed the NDA is set to dominate regions like Kolhan and Santhal Pargana, which he believes will secure them around 60% of the seats. "We are confident of forming the government," he said.
