Jharkhand Trust Vote on Monday: JMM-Led Alliance Confident of Victory
Ranchi, 5th February 2023: The MLAs of Jharkhand's JMM-led alliance expressed confidence in winning the trust vote scheduled for Monday, following their return to Ranchi from Hyderabad on Sunday evening. The legislators, arriving in a chartered flight at Birsa Munda Airport, were subsequently transported to the Circuit House in the city in two buses.
Minister Alamgir Alam affirmed the unity among their MLAs, stating, "Our MLAs are united... We have the support of 48 to 50 legislators." Echoing this sentiment, JMM lawmaker Mithilesh Thakur asserted that the coalition would successfully navigate the trust vote. Thakur claimed, "Many BJP legislators are also in support of the alliance in the state."
However, Biranchi Narain, Chief Whip of the BJP, offered a contrary view, predicting the coalition's defeat in the upcoming vote of confidence. Narain alleged, "The MLAs in Hyderabad were kept under strict surveillance, which indicates that they were not confident of winning."
