Ahead of the Election Commission’s announcement regarding the Maharashtra and Jharkhand Assembly elections today, BJP leader Pratul Shah Deo attacked the ruling JMM party citing misrule, corruption, misgovernance in its governance and claimed that JMM will face a crushing defeat and Chief Minister Hemant Soren will be the last prince of the Soren dynasty after the polls.

Speaking to ANI, BJP leader Pratul Shah Deo said, “We are fully prepared as the elections here were due and Assembly’s term was ending on January 5, so the elections had to be held before that. Jharkhand Mukti Morcha has panicked so much that it officially posted that it is a murder of democracy and they are holding elections before time.”

The people of Maharashtra are very intelligent, they understand everything.”
