After a closed-door meeting of the MLAs of the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) at Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren's residence on Tuesday, 30 August, 41 UPA legislators landed in Raipur in the neighbouring state of Chhattisgarh where they will be put up in a resort amid fears of horse-trading, sources told The Quint.
Two buses, carrying the ruling coalition MLAs, including Soren, had earlier travelled from the CM's residence to Ranchi Airport. The MLAs had been flown down to Raipur from there on a chartered flight at around 4:30 pm.
"No unforeseen incident is going to take place. We are ready for everything, the situation is under our control. I will let you know if I will also go with the MLAs," Soren was quoted as saying by news agency ANI outside the airport.
