00:00The dates for the Maharashtra and Jharkhand elections are announced and the final countdown
00:16to the result day, 23rd November, is now officially here.
00:21Immediately after the Election Commission's announcement, the political environment has
00:26charged up once again.
00:28And be very sure, until the final day, this will continue.
00:32In today's edition of PollRab, we cover three big stories of the day.
00:36First one is, Farnab is going to be the CM face for NDA.
00:41Second is that Congress is possibly upset over the Jharkhand election dates.
00:46And at last, development comes from Jharkhand once again as it appears six sitting MLAs
00:52of the BJP are set to be dropped.
00:55So without wasting further time, let us begin.
01:00Maharashtra is set for a single-face Assembly election on 20th November with the result
01:05due on 23rd November.
01:08Today the Deputy CM Devendra Farnabis hinted that Eknath Shinde will be Mahayati Alliance's
01:13face for the upcoming polls.
01:15During a joint press conference with Shinde and the fellow Deputy CM Ajit Pawar, Farnabis
01:21stated that they don't need to announce a CM candidate as a CM is sitting right here.
01:28In addition, he also challenged the opposition leader Sharad Pawar to name their CM candidate,
01:32suggesting that the Mahavikasagadi Alliance lacks confidence in their ability to form
01:37a government this time.
01:39The ruling Mahayati, also known as the NDA, presented their government report card today
01:44at the conference, positioning themselves strongly for the upcoming elections.
01:49Although a lots and lots of supporters want Devendra Farnabis to return as CM but it appears
01:55unlikely as of now.
01:58Next we move to Jharkhand as it appears that the Congress leaders are apparently upset
02:03over the election date, particularly of the state Jharkhand.
02:08Subhakant Sahay, the Congress leader, expressed his dissatisfaction with the Election Commission's
02:12decision to hold Jharkhand Assembly election in two phases, stating that the process could
02:18have been completed in just one phase, just like Maharashtra.
02:22He argued that the two-phase schedule is now restricting Congress's campaign efforts.
02:28Despite he emphasized that Congress is well prepared and argued that the seed distribution
02:33within the alliance is finalized and it will be released by October 20 so that the campaign
02:38can begin officially.
02:40Take a look yourself what he stated.

05:07of candidates.

05:13by the BJP's Central Election Commission held in Delhi on Tuesday, with the 22 sitting
05:18legislators reportedly retaining the ticket.
05:21However, six sitting MLAs may lose their ticket this time.

05:30Furthermore, all eyes will be on Champai Soren's candidacy too.
