The 'Others' category include five of All Jharkhand
Students Union (AJSU) which can go either way. The other
winners include Enos Ekka of the Jharkhand Party and Geeta
Koda, wife of former Chief Minister and scam-tainted Madhu
Koda.

Communist Party of India-Marxist Leninist (CPI-ML),
Marxist Coordination Committee (MCC), JJAM and Rashtriya
Kalyan Paksh won one seat each, while independents emerged the
winner in two seats.
Expressing the party's desire that it wants to lead
the next coalition, Congress party spokesman Manish Tewari
said, "The Congress is the single largest party in the single
largest group".
"In certain circumstances stepping up for public
service is also a sacrifice," he said when asked whether the
party is ready to make sacrifices on its claim for Chief
Ministership.
Congress leaders described Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD)
as a "UPA constituent" and JMM chief Shibu Soren as a "family
member" despite the fact that they were not part of the
Congress-led pre-poll alliance.
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Parliamentary Board

to form the government.
RJD chief Lalu Prasad indicated that he was ready to
forge an alliance with Congress and JMM for forming a
government. (MORE) PTI PVR
