Ranchi: The high-pitched election campaigns at Madhupur assembly constituency for the April 17 bypoll came to an end on Thursday evening with both JMM and BJP remaining optimistic about their victory.
As many as 3.22 lakh voters will exercise their franchise across 487 polling centres across the constituency on Saturday.
Chief minister Hemant Soren, who was JMM’s star campaigner for party candidate Hafizul Hassan, flew back to Ranchi on Thursday afternoon. Hemant camped in Madhupur since April 9 and held five rallies in various blocks of Madhupur constituency and took part in public contact programmes as well.
Hemant, who had been urging the electorate to vote for Hassan to strengthen his government, wrapped up his canvassing by paying tribute at the grave of late JMM stalwart Haji Hussain Ansari. Besides the chief minister, a battery of his ministers from the Congress party also canvassed for Hassan.
