The state went to polls in two phases – November 13 and November 20 – for 81 assembly seats. Exit polls have been split in their predictions concerning Jharkhand with most of them stating that BJP-led NDA will win the polls.

Ranchi: On counting for #jharkhandelection2024, Congress leader Rakesh Sinha says, "The results will come in our favour. People have shown their support, love and blessings to the candidates of 'Mahaghathbandhan'.

This soil of Jharkhand is very hard and the BJP has been constantly trying to demolish this soil through 'Operation Lotus', ED, Income Tax and CBI..."
