JMM leader Champai Soren took oath as the Chief Minister of Jharkhand on Friday (February 2).  The oath-taking ceremony was held at the Durbar Hall of the Raj Bhavan here. Champai Soren was nominated for the chief minister's post on Thursday after he urged the governor to accept his claim to form the government at the earliest as there was "confusion" in the state which was without a chief minister since the resignation of Hemant Soren on Wednesday, deepening the political crisis.
