Jharkhand Assembly Election 2024: The date of Jharkhand Assembly elections is to be announced today by the Election Commission. Regarding which JMM leader Manoj Pandey has reacted. He said that the election is to be announced today but BJP leaders got the information about it only yesterday. This is a very serious matter. Does the Commission work on the instructions of BJP leaders?
The JMM leader further said that Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has a byte in which he is saying that the elections will be announced tomorrow, it seems strange. Keeping a commission like this a puppet is a serious matter.

How are the preparations for the elections?
While talking to ANI, when JMM leader Manoj Pandey was asked what kind of preparations you have for the elections, you have not even held any meeting yet. On this he said that all the discussions have been done, preparations are done in every way. There are many aspects and many mediums of our conversation. After this a formal meeting is yet to be held. Everything will become clear after that meeting. But a blueprint is ready as to who has to fight from where. Talks are yet to be held on 2-3 seats, after which an announcement will be made.
Manoj Pandey further said that as soon as the elections are announced, a meeting of the India Alliance will be held soon after that. After that it will be announced which seats the alliance partners will contest.
Congress leader also reacted
Jharkhand Congress chief Rajesh Thakur has also reacted to the announcement of Jharkhand Assembly elections by the Election Commission today. He said that you want to hold the elections of Jharkhand along with Maharashtra but when the tenure of the government was ending on 3rd November in Haryana and 26th November in Maharashtra. So why didn't you conduct elections for both of them together? When our views are ignored, we feel that you are making such announcements politically motivated or inspired by a particular party.
