NEW DELHI: The Jharkhand Mukti Morcha ( JMM ) announced its second list of candidates for the Jharkhand assembly elections on Wednesday. It has fielded Rajya Sabha MP Mahua Maji to contest from the Ranchi constituency . She had earlier contested from this constituency in 2014 and 2019 but was not able to win both time.
