Ranchi (Jharkhand) [India], November 23 (ANI): The trends for the 2024 general assembly elections in Jharkhand have started to emerge where the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM)-led Mahagathbandhan has crossed the halfway mark. Jharkhand Congress in-charge Ghulam Ahmad Mir said that the number of seats and the margin of votes for his party will increase.
Mir said that there are approximately 20 rounds of counting in total and the counting has happened for just two or three rounds. He further added that Congress will be able to add five to six more seats by the end of the vote count.
“These are early trends, we have just entered the second or third rounds of counting, there are approximately 20 rounds of counting in total. In some places, we are leading and in others, we are trailing. We should wait till 2-3 PM, the number of seats and margin of votes for Congress will increase. In some areas, we will definitely do better in the fifth or sixth round of counting. Our JMM-led alliance has tried to perform better in these elections. We tried to reach out to people, especially women voters. People have responded to it in the polling and it is also visible now,’ Jharkhand Congress in-charge Ghulam Ahmad Mir told ANI.
The perception about the presence of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in urban areas is changing through the emerging trends, he said, adding that the small and media businessmen were not able to see any achievements and have suffered because of BJP’s policies such as Goods and Services Tax (GST).

Under the leadership of PM Modi, the public is expressing full faith in the BJP. I extend greetings from my side,” CM Yadav told ANI.
