Former Jharkhand Chief Minister Champai Soren’s switch to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) marks a significant political shift in the state, and now, former Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) MLA Lobin Hembrom has followed suit, joining the BJP. Hembrom’s decision to leave JMM, a party he has been associated with for years, and join the BJP is seen as part of a broader realignment of political forces in Jharkhand ahead of the upcoming elections.

Lobin Hembrom, who represented the Borio constituency in the Jharkhand Assembly, has been a vocal critic of the current JMM-led government. He has expressed dissatisfaction with the handling of various developmental issues and accused the ruling government of failing to address the concerns of tribal communities. His move to the BJP comes after a series of meetings with senior BJP leaders, who welcomed him into the party fold with promises of a greater role in state politics.

The BJP, in turn, is expected to leverage Hembrom’s experience and influence in the Santhal Pargana region, where the party has been aiming to strengthen its presence. His joining is viewed as a strategic gain for the BJP, which is keen to consolidate support among tribal voters and challenge the JMM-Congress alliance in the state.
Hembrom’s entry into the BJP is also seen as a sign of internal discontent within the JMM. With two prominent figures now defecting to the BJP, it raises questions about the stability and unity of the ruling party in Jharkhand. As the state gears up for elections, such defections could play a critical role in shaping the political landscape, potentially altering voter dynamics and the balance of power in Jharkhand.
