Ranchi :  Hemant Soren, leader of the INDIA Bloc in Jharkhand, on Sunday staked claim to form the next government in the state after being re-elected as the leader of the coalition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following a meeting of the newly elected MLAs here, Soren visited Raj Bhavan to meet Governor Santosh Gangwar, where he tendered his resignation as Chief Minister and submitted a list of 56 elected MLAs from the alliance to prove his majority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Governor accepted Soren’s resignation and appointed him as the caretaker Chief Minister until the new government was formed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soren is expected to take oath as Chief Minister on November 28 at Morabadi Ground, Ranchi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier in the day, a meeting was held at the Chief Minister’s residence on Kanke Road, attended by MLAs and leaders from the four alliance partners — the JMM, the Congress, the RJD, and the CPI-ML-L.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discussions focused on the framework of the new government, the swearing-in ceremony, and guest invitations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Addressing the gathering, Soren congratulated the newly elected MLAs, attributing the alliance’s victory to the people of Jharkhand and the efforts of party workers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hemant Soren is going to become the first leader in Jharkhand to take oath as Chief Minister for the fourth time. His first stint as CM in a Congress-RJD-supported government started when he took oath as Chief Minister on July 13, 2013, lasting until December 23, 2014.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His next stint started when he took oath as CM on December 29, 2019, following a decisive victory in the 2019 state elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His third term began after he came out of jail on July 4, 2024. He resigned after he was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on January 31, 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before Soren, only his father, Shibu Soren, and BJP\u2019s Arjun Munda had served as Chief Minister three times each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The India bloc secured a decisive victory in the 81-member Jharkhand Assembly, winning 56 seats — the JMM with 34, the Congress with 16, the RJD with four, and the CPI-ML-L with two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This marks the first time in Jharkhand’s history that a government will be formed with a two-thirds majority.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
