Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren will resign and seek a second term after a decisive victory, with his JMM alliance winning 56 seats.

Hemant Soren's JMM-led alliance on Saturday stormed to power in Jharkhand for a second consecutive term, winning 56 seats in the 81-member assembly, despite an all-out blitz by the BJP-led NDA which managed only 24 seats.

Hemant Soren, leader of the INDIA bloc, has been elected as the legislature party leader in Jharkhand. He met with Governor Santosh Kumar Gangwar and staked claim to form the government after his alliance secured 56 seats in the Assembly elections.

Devendra Fadnavis hailed Mahayuti's "unprecedented victory," and said there "will be no dispute over CM's face". State BJP chief Chandrashekhar Bawankule pushes for Fadnavis as new CM.

Hemant Soren, aged 49, is set to begin his second consecutive term as chief minister, reaffirming his stronghold on Jharkhand’s tribal electorate.
