9 govts, three spells of Prez rule in Jharkhand in 14 years

Jharkhand, which appeared to be finally headed towards electing a stable government this time, has seen nine different governments--none of which could complete its term--in the last 14 years since the formation of the tribal-dominated state in 2000.
The BJP was all set to form the government in Jharkhand in coalition with ally AJS as votes in the assembly elections were counted today.
In between the reigns of the parties in power, the mineral-rich state, which has gone through bouts of instability, has also been under President's Rule thrice.
Since Jharkhand's creation in 2000, when it was carved out from the hilly southern districts of Bihar, five people have served as the state's chief minister, across three assembly terms.

Two each belong to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM), and one independent (Madhu Koda).
While the BJP's Babulal Marandi was the first Chief Minister, his party colleague Arjun Munda is the longest-serving being at the helm for over five years, across three terms.

Shibu Soren of the JMM was also the Chief Minister thrice across three terms. One of his tenures lasted only 11 days following his failure to obtain a vote of confidence in the state assembly.
His son Hemant Soren is the incumbent chief minister, after he was sworn on July 13 2013.
