Jharkhand Rajya Sabha elections are all set to begin. Congress leaders had a meeting at Hemant Soren’s residence for 3 hours, but the candidate is not finalized yet.
K.Raju, Congress in-charge, Telangana Deputy Chief Minister Bhatti Mallu, Shiri Bela Prasad, co-in-charge, and State Congress President Keshav Kamlesh were present for the discussions. The party is not taking this election lightly, as the Deputy CM visited Ranchi from Telangana. Deputy CM has already said that the candidate will be a local leader. The frontrunners are Rajesh Thakur, Subodhkant Sahay, Dheeraj Sahu and Pradeep Balmuchu. This seat-sharing within the alliance may heat politics in Jharkhand.
