In the lead-up to the 2024 Jharkhand Assembly Elections, we hit the streets of Ranchi to gather unfiltered opinions from the locals. In a candid conversation outside a popular roadside eatery, residents shared their thoughts on the current political climate, key issues, and the candidates they are rooting for. With the election season heating up, this informal yet insightful interaction offers a snapshot of the sentiments and concerns of everyday people as they prepare to head to the polls.

00:00The work done for the travels has not been completed.
00:03If you go deeply, people will talk about it, but if you go deeply to the ground, there is no work.
00:09Neither the work has been done for the travels, nor for the middle class.
00:12The infrastructure here is being damaged.
00:15The atmosphere is ready for the elections.
00:17There is always a discussion. A lot of people come to my shop.
00:21They drink, eat and talk to each other about the elections.
00:25The atmosphere is ready.
00:2713th of November would be the day when Jharkhand would be voting for the first phase of elections.
00:32Assembly elections, all important.
00:34Hemant Soren is the guy who is the sitting Chief Minister.
00:38Whether he translates another term for himself remains to be seen.
00:42This is a busy intersection as of now at the dead of the night in the state capital of Jharkhand, Ranchi.
00:48And we are here with some late night outers who are here to get some food.
00:53The roadside food, if my cameraman can show how things percolate down here.
00:58And those who are returning home after a busy day at work, quickly catch up some food and then go ahead.
01:06We have a gentleman with us who comes from Patna, but votes here as well.
01:12Tell us, how important are the elections in Jharkhand for these areas?
01:16This is the main area of Ranchi in Jharkhand.
01:20And next to it is the HEC.
01:22I would like to brief you about the HEC.
01:25The HEC is the biggest centre in Asia.
01:28The Chandni Chowk project was built here.
01:31And the government, whichever government comes,
01:36we have a chance that BJP will come, who works on the HEC.
01:40If they work on the HEC, it will be more beneficial.
01:43And what about the work done for the tribals here?
01:48Nothing has been done for the tribals here.
01:51If you go deep into the ground, people will talk about it.
01:55But if you go deep into the ground, there is no work.
01:58Neither has work been done for the tribals, nor for the middle class.
02:01The infrastructure here is being damaged.
02:04Small things are being done.
02:06I am seeing a lot here.
02:08Sonu is also with us, whose hands are always busy making kebabs.
02:13Sonu ji, how long have you been making kebabs here?
02:15Sir, I have been here for 3 years.
02:173 years.
02:18When you started, what were your expectations?
02:21Did you choose this job?
02:23I used to live out of the country.
02:25I used to live in Dubai at that time.
02:27When I came here during the lockdown,
02:29there was no work to do.
02:31And I didn't even get a visa to go.
02:33So I thought I would do something here.
02:35So I tried and it started working.
02:37Then I got into the HEC.
02:39I have been continuing for 3 years.
02:41What are your expectations from the new government of Jharkhand?
02:44Sir, my expectation is that
02:46they should do their work and nothing else.
02:48They should not show off.
02:50They should not make promises.
02:52They should do their work perfectly.
02:54They should show what they are doing and what they are not doing.
02:56There are a lot of people who come here and make promises.
02:59But they don't do anything.
03:01My expectation from the new government is that
03:03they should do something for Jharkhand.
03:05Sonu bhai, we are seeing you
03:07as a young man.
03:09You have set up your own stall here.
03:11The government is often
03:13giving food and shelter
03:15to a lot of families
03:17for free.
03:19What do you have to say about that idea?
03:21There are a lot of Labhartis in Jharkhand.
03:23No, sir.
03:25They say one thing and do something else.
03:27There is nothing like that.
03:29Sir, we come here from the main road.
03:31For the shop.
03:33The main road is 12 km from here.
03:35But I have never heard
03:37that someone has got a house or something.
03:39There is nothing like that.
03:41Okay.
03:43When you feed kebabs
03:45to the people of Jharkhand,
03:47especially the people of Ranchi,
03:49a lot of people talk about the elections.
03:51Do you feel that the atmosphere is good
03:53or is it cold?
03:55The atmosphere is good for the elections.
03:57There is always discussion.
03:59A lot of people come to my shop
04:01and drink and eat.
04:03The atmosphere is good for the elections.
04:05I am from Maharashtra.
04:07Have you come to Jharkhand before?
04:09No, I am from Jharkhand.
04:11I don't live here.
04:13What will be better than meeting you?
04:15After this trip,
04:17we are going to Maharashtra
04:19because there is an election on 20th.
04:21Do you feel that the Mahayati government
04:23has done a good job
04:25since it came to power?
04:27It is true that the Mahayati government
04:29has done a good job.
04:32But it has not done a good job
04:34for the poor.
04:36It has done a good job
04:38for the rich.
04:40The rich people are flourishing
04:42and the poor people
04:44like the industrialists
04:46or the people
04:48who do business
04:50are going down.
04:52The development
04:54of the poor
04:56is not happening.
04:58When you come to Jharkhand
05:00for Chhat Pooja
05:02every year,
05:04do you see any change?
05:06Yes, there is a lot of change.
05:08The government
05:10has brought a lot of change.
05:14The roads,
05:16the hospitality
05:18of the people
05:20have improved a lot.
05:22There has been a lot of change
05:24and development.
05:26You are from Maharashtra
05:28and I am from Ranchi.
05:32As the promises
05:34could be a smokescreen
05:36that is also covering us here
05:38we will have to wait and watch
05:40how Jharkhand votes
05:42for the two phased elections
05:44and the results will be out on 23rd.
