Jharkhand Mukhti Morcha, a major ally of BJP-led government in Jharkhand has withdrawn support in the state today over differences on the rotation policy of the chief ministerial post. Deputy Chief Minister Hemant Soren announced the decision in Ranchi today and said that the final decision in this regard will be taken by JMM chief Shibu Soren. The pre-condition to this alliance was that both the parties will have their candidates as Chief Minister for 28-months each. According to reports JMM has asked the BJP to tell Arjun Munda to step down from the post of Jharkhand Chief Minister. JMM chief Shibu Soren while asking for a change of leadership within the BJP told Arjun Munda to either step down or hand power to JMM or to make someone else from the BJP chief minister.
