Former Jharkhand Chief minister Babulal Marandi
RANCHI: Former Jharkhand chief minister Babulal Marandi on Thursday claimed that the Madhupur bye-election will be a rerun of the 2009 Tamar bypoll.
“I have said this on March 30, and I will repeat it again. In 2009, the then chief minister (Shibu Soren) had to resign after he lost in the Tamar bypoll. On May 2, the incumbent minister (Hafizul Hassan) will have to resign after he loses in Madhupur,” Marandi told reporters at the BJP state headquarters here.
Shibu had to resign from the CM’s post in January 2009 after he was handed a shock defeat by his opponent Gopal Krishna Patar (Raja Peter). Patar defeated Shibu by over 9,000 votes.
