Ranchi, Dec 26 (IBNS): Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Raghubar Das, 59, will be the next chief minister of Jharkhand, media reports said.

The BJP and its ally All Jharkhand Students’ Union won the state polls winning 42 seats in the 81-member assembly.

Jharkhand had nine governments and three stints of President’s Rule since it was created in 2000.
