Who will be Jharkhand CM

Who will be Jharkhand CM - Sakshi Post

Jharkhand - the state known for its forest cover and the black gold called coal - has now turned saffron.

Political instability in a state that saw nine governments and three president's rules in its 14 years would finally end. 
But, one nteresting question remains. Will Jharkhand continue to have a tribal chief minister as it did till now or will it choose a non-tribal as its chief minister? 
Of the two predominantly tribal states of Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand, the former has never had a tribal chief minister, but Jharkhand saw Babulal Marandi, Arjun Munda, Shibu Soren and Hemanth Soren - all tribals. But, the clamour for a non-tribal CM is growing. In fact, BJP senior leader Yashwant Sinha had for long been demanding a non-tribal CM for Jharkhand.
The following names are being heard as the CM probables in Jharkhand. 
Dharmendra Pradhan: Union Minister Pradhan has always been National BJP's man in Jharkhand and was chiefly seen as the architect of the Jharkhand BJP's stunning performance in Lok Sabha elections. But, Pradhan is not a member of the assembly now.
Raghuveer Das: Raghuveer Das is a non-tribal leader from nothern Jharkhand. He has already indicated that he is in the race for the CM.
Arjun Munda: The tribal face of the BJP is one of the strongest claimant for the post. He had even gone to delhi even before the results were out to lobby for his candidature. However, he is currently trailing from his home turf.
