Former Ranchi Deputy Mayor, Ajay Nath Shahdeo filed his nomination as Congress candidate from Hatia. After filing nomination, all the leaders claimed that their victory is confirmed.
Talking to the media persons after filing his nomination AJSU Party Chief Sudesh Kumar Mahto said that he is confident of his victory. He said that the people have very high expectations from the government, for which his party will work to meet the people’s expectation.
“The party will raise public issues. The political parties in Jharkhand have deviated from basic issues. The local issues of the State have been sidelined. AJSU Party will not let this happen and it will work according to the aspirations of the people,” he added.
Addressing the press persons after filing his nomination from Hatia constituency as Congress candidate, Ajay Nath Shahdeo said that Hatia Assembly constituency has both rural and urban areas. “There are many problems. There are fundamental problems ranging from lack of electricity, water and roads, which need to be resolved. The current MLA of Hatia is less a people’s representative and more a businessman. The MLA along with the State’s Urban Development Minister has provided benefits to their business friends. They did not work on any issue related to public interest,” he added.
Shahdeo said that he will overthrow the sitting MLA from Hatia Assembly constituency and the Raghubar Government will be wiped out from Jharkhand.
BJP candidate Deokumar Dhan from Mandar after filing his nomination said that he has three major issues.
“First of all, he wants that the income of farmers should increase, there should be a system of quality education in rural areas and unemployed youth should become independent.
He said that the BJP Government has given corruption-free governance so far,” he added.
