Counting for the elections held to Jharkhand’s Ranchi assembly seat is currently on.

The Ranchi assembly is located in the Ranchi district of Jharkhand and falls under the Ranchi parliamentary constituency. In the 2014 Jharkhand assembly election, Chandreshwar Prasad Singh of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) won from the Ranchi assembly seat.

Jharkhand is currently ruled by the Bharatiya Janata Party under Chief Minister Raghubhar Das.

In the 2019 Jharkhand assembly elections, the BJP is up against an alliance of the Congress and the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha. Jharkhand is the third state where elections have been held since the 2019 Lok Sabha election when the Narendra Modi-led BJP stormed back.

Apart from Jharkhand, elections have been held in Maharashtra and Haryana. In both the states, the BJP emerged as the single-largest party but could not secure a majority on its own. In Haryana, the BJP formed government by joining hands with the Jannayak Janata Party. In Maharashtra, the BJP failed to form a stable coalition, which led to an alliance of Shiv Sena-Nationalist Congress Party-Congress coming to power.
