Ranchi (Jharkhand) [India], November 24 (ANI): Following the triumph of the Congress in Jharkhand Assembly polls in which it won 16 seats, Congress MP and Jharkhand Election co-in charge Saptagiri Ulaka said that the alliance government would try to come up to the expectations of the people and try to fulfil all the promises in the manifesto.
Saptagiri Ulaka said, “Congress performed very well I the tribal belt. We won 7 tribal seats and two SC seats. I wish to thank the people of Jharkhand for bringing us to power. We will try to come up to their expectations. The alliance government will work for the progress of the people. We have called for a CLP meeting and the meeting of the INDIA alliance will take place at 11 am and then decide the future course of action.”
He said that the letter of support would be submitted to the governor today itself.
“We hope that the swearing ceremony will be conducted very soon and it will be a strong government. It was a pre-poll alliance. Congress and RJD have performed well including the left parties. We will try to fulfil all our manifesto promises. The formula will remain the same in government formation like the last time which was one minister for every four MLA. The final decision will be by party high command,” he added.
