Historic Victory for Hemant Sarkar

For the past 24 years, Jharkhand voters have consistently replaced the ruling government every five years. No party has ever been re-elected, until now. Hemant Soren’s leadership and the strategic alliance of JMM, Congress, and other India Alliance partners have rewritten this political narrative.

In his Barhait Assembly constituency, Hemant Soren leads BJP’s Gamliel Hembrom by 2,812 votes, further solidifying his position as the state’s preferred leader.

Exit Polls and Counting Trends

While many exit polls had anticipated a BJP-led NDA victory, Axis My India accurately predicted a triumph for the India Alliance, forecasting 53 seats for the alliance and 25 for the NDA. The actual results align closely with these predictions.

Counting of votes commenced at 8 am on November 23, 2024, revealing a clear lead for the JMM-led alliance early on. As of now, BJP-led NDA is trailing with 29 seats, while independent candidates lead in two constituencies.

Key Factors Behind JMM’s Victory

Two major initiatives by Hemant Soren played a pivotal role in swaying public opinion:

1. CM Maiya Yojana: This scheme provides a monthly assistance of ₹2,500 to women, directly impacting household economics and gaining widespread support.
2. Public Sentiment Against Jail Term Controversy: The legal proceedings against Hemant Soren ignited sympathy among voters, rallying them behind his leadership.

These factors, combined with effective grassroots campaigning, helped the India Alliance secure 50 seats, reaffirming their hold on Jharkhand politics.

Impact on Opposition

The BJP-led NDA, under the leadership of Kamal Nath, faced a significant setback. Despite aggressive campaigning, they failed to capitalize on key constituencies, as voters leaned towards the promises and stability offered by Hemant Soren’s administration.

Looking Ahead

Hemant Soren’s historic victory marks a new chapter for Jharkhand. The state now anticipates continued development and the implementation of voter-centric schemes. With a clear mandate, Hemant Soren has the opportunity to transform Jharkhand’s future.
