As many as 48 MLAs voted in favour of the confidence motion in the 81-member Assembly.

Speaking during the one-day special session, Soren said the need for a trust vote was felt as BJP was “attempting to destabilise democratically elected governments” in non-BJP ruled states, including Jharkhand

He alleged that the BJP was trying to create a “civil war-like situation in the country by fuelling riots to win elections”.

Shortly after, the assembly was adjourned sine-die.
