Jharkhand: Discontent among Cong MLAs over portfolios; threaten to boycott assembly session

By Economic Times - 8 months ago
Congress legislators in Jharkhand are expressing resentment over the induction of four party MLAs as ministers in the Champai Soren-led JMM government. As many as 12 MLAs have threatened to boycott the upcoming assembly session from February 23 and head to Jaipur if the ministers are not replaced by new faces. The JMM-led alliance in the state has 47 MLAs in the 81-member assembly. Unhappy over Congress' decision to give ministerial berths to Alamgir Alam, Rameshwar Oraon, Banna Gupta, and Badal Patralekh again, the legislators went into a huddle at Ranchi Circuit House just before the swearing-in ceremony on Friday with plans of boycotting it.
