Frustrated over Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) backtracking on its power-sharing deal in Jharkhand, the Bharatiya Janata Party has decided to withdraw support to the Shibu Soren government on Monday. “The BJP will withdraw support to JMM government tomorrow,” BJP spokesman Sanjay Seth said on Sunday, a day after Mr. Soren asserted that he would continue as the Chief Minister and was in touch with the Congress.

A BJP delegation will meet Governor M.O.H. Farrooq and hand over the letter of withdrawal of support.
