Just in: Congress, Jharkhand Mukti Morcha part ways in Jharkhand ahead of the polls. The 475-days-old grand alliance between the JMM and the Congress has finally broken off with both the party leaders announcing to contest the forthcoming assembly elections on all 81 seats separately. The five phase assembly poll in Jharkhand is scheduled to begin on November 25.

Jharkhand, which has seen nine governments and three stints of President's rule in 14 years, saw fractured mandates in both 2005 and 2009 assembly elections.
