I’d like for him to show the number of people whom he’s given employment to in 20 months when he had over 12 ministers in administration,” Singh told reporters.

  JMM has decided to go solo in Bihar Assembly elections, said party’s General Secretary Suprio Bhattacharya on Tuesday Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) has decided to go solo in Bihar Assembly elections, said party’s General Secretary Suprio Bhattacharya on Tuesday. While talking to ANI, Bhattacharya said that JMM has identified seven Assembly constituencies to contest the polls. “We were waiting in the hope that Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) will give us seats to contest in Bihar elections. But today we were forced to take decisions against RJD’s ‘Makkari’ (cunningness). We have identified 7 seats on which we will fight and win,” he said. When asked whether the coalition of RJD-JMM will continue in Jharkhand, Bhattacharya said, “Here (Jharkhand) we have a different situation. We have given them more respect than they deserve. We gave them seats more than they deserve. In Bihar, they did not follow etiquettes.”
