Ranchi witnessed a momentous occasion as Hemant Soren was sworn in as the 14th Chief Minister of Jharkhand on Thursday. The ceremony at Morabadi ground was graced by prominent political leaders, including Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, Rahul Gandhi, and West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee. The oath of office was administered by Jharkhand Governor Santosh Kumar Gangwar.

Soren's induction marks his fourth term as Chief Minister. He retained the Barhait constituency with a decisive victory, defeating BJP’s Gamliyel Hembrom by nearly 40,000 votes. His party, the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM), led a coalition that secured 56 out of 81 seats in the Assembly, reaffirming its dominance.

In his address, Soren expressed gratitude to voters and coalition allies for their support, promising continued focus on development and welfare initiatives. His wife, Kalpana Soren, also celebrated a win in the Gandey constituency, adding another feather to the JMM's cap.

The swearing-in ceremony drew an impressive lineup of opposition leaders, showcasing political solidarity. Among the attendees were NCP Chief Sharad Pawar, Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann, Himachal Pradesh CM Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu, and Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal, alongside leaders like Uddhav Thackeray, Akhilesh Yadav, and Mehbooba Mufti.

Security was heightened across Ranchi, with traffic curbs and school closures ensuring smooth proceedings. Posters and banners adorned the city, adding to the celebratory ambiance. The cabinet expansion is expected after a confidence vote in the Assembly, as confirmed by Congress leaders.
