Abdul Mobin Rijvi emphasized that RJM is part of the third front formed under the leadership of veteran politician Surya Singh Besra. He refuted allegations that the party is entering the electoral fray merely to siphon votes from the ruling alliance.

“We are contesting the election for the protection of Jharkhand’s minorities, Dalits, women, tribal communities, and other weaker sections of society, aiming to create a corruption-free Jharkhand,” he stated.

The media briefing also saw the presence of General Secretary Ashok Jain, along with party members Gulam Rabbani, Mustaque Kalakar, Md Jamal Ansari, Md Munajir Hassan, and others.
