He blamed the parties of the ruling coalition in Jharkhand for "promoting dynastic politics".

Sharma alleged that the JMM and the Congress did not fulfil their election promises made five years ago.

“They have been making false statements and indulged in looting and corruption in the state. As the election is round the corner, they are trying to mislead people,” he said.
