On 23 November 2024, Mahagathbandhan won the 2024 assembly election in Jharkhand, with Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) getting 34 seats.[1] Other members of Mahagathbandhan – Indian National Congress got 16 seats, Rashtriya Janata Dal 4 seats and Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist) (Liberation) 2 seats – making total of 56 out of 81 seats in Jharkhand Legislative Assembly. Soren is presumably considered to be designated again as the Chief Minister of Jharkhand for the fourth time.[2][3]
