NEW DELHI: The Jharkhand Mukti Morcha ( JMM ) announced its second list of candidates for the Jharkhand assembly elections on Wednesday. It has fielded Rajya Sabha MP Mahua Maji to contest from the Ranchi constituency . She had earlier contested from this constituency in 2014 and 2019 but was not able to win both time.
Maji was elected unopposed to the Rajya Sabha in June 2022 and had also served as the chairperson of the Jharkhand State Commission for Women. She was the former president of the JMM's women's wing.
Additionally, the JMM had released its initial list of 35 candidates earlier the same day, which included chief minister Hemant Soren contesting from Barhait and Kalpana Soren from Gandey.
The assembly polls are scheduled to be conducted in two phases, on November 13 and 20, with the results set to be declared on November 23.
