With substantial support for JMM's impactful initiatives and strategic alliances, the Congress remains hopeful. The state elections are scheduled for November, featuring significant voter participation to decide among 81 constituencies.

Confidently projecting the return of Hemant Soren's administration, a Congress candidate from the Baghmara Assembly constituency voiced optimism on Sunday. As part of the ruling Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) alliance, Congress is actively engaged in the assembly elections alongside its partner, amid notable public backing.
