Hemant Soren has not adopted the way other constituents of the I.N.D.I.A. block are going but wants to keep Congress under his grip and make use of political sources. From the beginning of the elections, he suspected that Congress state leaders were not doing well and supporting the candidates to give a tough fight to the other political rivals in the elections source says. In the absence of support from top leadership, the candidates were not doing their best in the constituencies and not putting money and manpower into influencing the voters by propagating achievements of the government sources it says. The ground reports also seconded his views. He then approached the Congress high command to send money and arrange meetings of senior leaders in almost all 30 constituencies from where Congress candidates are contesting source says. Sensing serious trouble in the Congress party, Soren funded the Congress candidates from his party and also deputed senior leaders to all the constituencies to campaigning source says. With all his efforts, the Congress party could manage 16 seats source says. The CM of Jharkhand rejected the demand of Congress for a deputy CM position but gave four ministerial positions source says. Though all belong to Congress but very loyal to Hemant Soren for his timely help and untiring services to ensure their victory in the elections source says.
