Singhbhum Lok Sabha constituency profile
Singhbhum Lok Sabha Constituency comprises of six assembly segments which include Seraikella (ST), Majhgaon (ST), Manoharpur, (ST), Chaibasa (ST), Jaganathpur (ST) and Chakradharpur (ST).
The 2016 move by the state government to empower itself for using the agricultural land for non-agricultural land for purposes, such as industry, might hurt BJP in votes tally as people in the tribal region may not be happy with it. In 2016, the Jharkhand government brought an important change in the CNT and the Land Acquisition Act, enabling itself to use the land for agriculture purposes has become a major poll issue in this constituency.
However, BJP is once again banking upon its sitting candidate Laxman Giluva in the forthcoming election and will face Geeta Kora whom he defeated in 2014 election by a margin of close to a lakh votes.
