Soren said the countdown for the exit of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) has begun and the December 3 results of the recently concluded assembly elections in five states, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Telangana, Chhattisgarh and Mizoram, will prove it.

The CM alleged that the BJP under Prime Minister Narendra Modi stands exposed before masses owing to false promises and people are bound to show them the exit door in the next Lok Sabha polls.

He alleged that the Centre has unleashed all forces including the ED, CBI and other central agencies for destabilising his democratically elected government.

In 2019, the BJP-AJSU Party alliance had swept the polls in Jharkhand, winning 12 of the 14 Lok Sabha seats while the Congress and the JMM bagged one each.
