**Jharkhand, India** – The Mandu Assembly constituency in Jharkhand concluded its election on November 20th, 2024, with a tight race between the Indian National Congress (INC) and the All Jharkhand Students Union (AJSU). While final results are still pending, initial reports suggest a victory for INC candidate Jai Prakash Bhai Patel.
In a closely contested election, Patel defeated AJSU’s Nirmal Mahto, reversing the 2019 results where Patel, then representing the BJP, won by a margin of 2062 votes against Mahto. This year’s election saw 18 major candidates compete. The 2019 election saw a 61.8% voter turnout, with the BJP securing first place with 20.9% of the vote.
While the Mandu results are significant, the article also mentions Prime Minister Modi’s comments celebrating BJP’s success in the Maharashtra Assembly elections, a separate election unrelated to the Mandu constituency. Further details on the precise vote counts and margins in Mandu are awaited.
