The upcoming Jharkhand Assembly elections in 2024 are expected to be a close contest, with no clear frontrunner emerging yet. The ruling Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM), led by Hemant Soren, will face a stiff challenge from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which has been in power at the center.

While the JMM boasts of its development record and regional focus, the BJP is banking on its national popularity and the strong performance of its leader, Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
