With the BJP legislature Party leader Arjun Munda resigning from his post on Wednesday the legislative body of the party is all set to elect a new leader as the Next CM of Jharkhand.

The members of the newly elected MlAs will sit to elect their new legislature Party leader on Friday in the presence of central leadership representatives JP Nadda and Vinay Sahasrtabuddhe in Ranchi.The BJP parliamentary board today announced names of two observers General Secretary JP Nadda and Vinay Sahstrabuddhe who will oversee the selection process of the next CM by legislatures.

“The meeting of the legislative body is likely to take place on Dec 26 or 27 though no official announcement in this regard has been made. The state president is also in Delhi so we cannot predict a tentative date as of now but tomorrow being a holiday and scores of programmes are being organised as per the pre-scheduled ‘Sushashan Diwas’ it is less likely that the meeting would take place on Thursday,” said State BJP Spokesperson Ajay Maroo.

However, Spokesperson Pradeep Sinha informed that the central observers will reach Ranchi by Thursday evening and the meeting will be convened by Friday. “No decision has been taken on the CM’s post. The observers are there for a fair selection,” he said. State party president Ravindra Rai was in Delhi to meet central leaders to discuss the issues related to Government formation and apprise the leadership of the popular sentiments of the people of the state for selection of their leader.
