Even as JMM-Congress-RJD alliance is racing ahead in Jharkhand, BJP leader and Chief Minister Raghubar Das refused to concede defeat.
“Let me clearly state that we’re not only winning but we’ll also form the government under the leadership of BJP,” he said.
Raghubar Das, the first Jharkhand CM to complete five years in office, faces anti-incumbency, rural distress, resentment over lack of jobs and even a divide within over the choice of poll candidates.
