Raghubar Das

Jharkhand Congress working president Bandhu Tirkey created controversy on Monday by asking party workers to "thrash" BJP activists "if required".

The clash happened over rights to organise the Chhath Puja at Surya Mandir in Sidhgora. Mr Rai's supporters had reportedly set up a camp for devotees close to the venue where Mr Das's supporters were organising cultural events.

The Jharkhand government has ordered a probe by the Anti-corruption Bureau (ACB) into the alleged amassing of disproportionate assets by former ministers in the previous BJP government in the state.

Raising concern over "rising" rape and murder cases in Jharkhand, the BJP on Sunday accused the Hemant Soren government of being insensitive towards women security.

A 10-point agenda was prepared and executed ove...

The results in the 2019 Jharkhand Assembly election on Monday again proved that the state Chief Minister's post is still "jinxed" with none of its holders managing to get a second consecutive term even as incumbent Raghubar Das was trailing in his own stronghold even as his BJP was swept out of the power.

Nationalist Congress Party chief Sharad Pawar today termed the BJP's lacklustre performance in Jharkhand as a fallout of its inability to ensure social justice for people across the country, and cited the Citizenship Amendment Act as a case in point.

"The BJP will accept the people's mandate, whatever it is," he said, as it became clear that the rival Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM)-Congress alliance was comfortably past the majority mark of 41.

Babulal Marandi, who hopes to play kingmaker in Jharkhand, said that "no party is untouchable" for him amid reports that he had received feelers from both the ruling BJP and the rival Jharkhand Mukti Morcha-Congress alliance.

As the ruling BJP appeared to be set for second place in a tight contest for Jharkhand, Chief Minister Raghubar Das exuded confidence that he would win and "the government will be formed under the BJP's leadership".
