Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma acknowledged the challenges facing the BJP in Jharkhand’s upcoming assembly elections but expressed optimism about the party’s chances in the region.

Speaking at a press conference in Guwahati on Sunday, Sarma, who is co-in charge of the BJP’s Jharkhand campaign, described the state as a “tough” political terrain but maintained that the BJP remains “hopeful of good results” in the polls.

“It is a tough state,” said Sarma, referring to the complexities of campaigning in Jharkhand.

 

“But we are hopeful of good results there,” he remarked, indicating the BJP’s positive outlook despite the obstacles ahead, he added."

Jharkhand’s assembly elections are scheduled to take place in two phases on November 13 and 20, with the counting of votes set for November 23.

While the Assam Chief Minister has been heavily involved in Jharkhand’s campaigning efforts, he admitted that his focus on the northeastern state’s November 13 bypolls has been limited.

“I have not been keeping tabs on the bypolls here. I have been very busy with Jharkhand,” he noted.

In Assam, BJP ministers, MLAs, and state leaders have taken up the campaign mantle for five assembly bypolls, while Sarma’s presence at the events remains uncertain.

“I am not sure whether I will be campaigning here this time. If I can manage time, perhaps I will campaign at one or two places,” Sarma added, hinting that his responsibilities in Jharkhand may prevent him from engaging in Assam’s bypoll efforts as much as he would like.
