Geeta Kora on Monday filed her nomination papers as the BJP candidate for the Singhbhum (ST) Lok Sabha constituency in Jharkhand’s West Singhbhum district.
Jharkhand BJP president Babulal Marandi, senior party leaders and hundreds of party workers accompanied Kora as she submitted her nomination papers before the returning officer.
Exuding confidence about her victory, Kora told reporters that the enthusiasm of party workers “showed that BJP would achieve 400 seat target.”
“Lots of work has been done for women by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He has a mission for development of women, tribals and others. I will take forward his mission of development in my constituency,” Kora said.
JMM has fielded former state minister Joba Manjhi in the Singhbhum Lok Sabha seat against Geeta Kora, who is the wife of former chief minister Madhu Kora.
