Jharkhand, a state that was formed 14 years ago, got its first stable government with BJP winning in 37 seats in the 81-member Assembly. It ally All Jharkhand Students Union (AJSU) has won five seats giving the alliance 42 seats, one more than the required majority of 41. [caption id=“attachment_2006799” align=“alignleft” width=“579”]BJP-AJSU alliance got 42 seats in Jharkhand. BJP-AJSU alliance got 42 seats in Jharkhand.[/caption] The state, which has seen nine governments and three stints of President’s rule in 14 years, gave a decisive mandate this time riding on Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s development card. BJP’s alliance partner AJSU suffered a jolt as its chief and former deputy chief minister Sudesh Mahto lost from his home turf Silli, which he had represented for 15 years. The ruling Jharkhand Mukti Morcha won 19 seats while its partner in government Congress won 6 seats. While BJP numbers more than doubled from 18 in 2009 to 37 this election, JMM’s numbers improved by one from 18 to 19 despite the loss of government. Chief Minister Hemant Soren won from Barhait by a good margin of 24,087 votes while lost in Dumka by a 5,262 votes. JVM(P) headed by former Chief Minister Babu Lal Marandi has won 8 seats compared to 11 seats it had won in the last elections. The BJP also led in the vote share recording 31.4 percent votes while JMM secured 20.5 percent. Congress got 10.3 percent votes while the JVM (P) got 10 percent. PTI
