Congress legislators and leaders in the state are in favour of the formation of the alternative government, but are yet to get any concrete assurance from the Congress high command, say party sources.
Congress, RJD and some Independent legislators could support an alternative government led by the JMM.
If such an agreement were to be arrived at, the Congress, RJD and Independents, along with the JMM could attempt a coalition comprising 41 legislators.
Of the 82 legislators in the state, 37 are in favour of fresh polls.
The 37 include 18 of the BJP, six of All Jharkhand Students' Union (AJSU), two of Janata Dal-United (JD-U) and 11 of the Jharkhand Vikas Morch-P (JVM-P).
The AJSU chief also met the governor and requested to dissolve the house as recommended by the cabinet.
