"The chief minister and three ministers ministers are in jail on corruption charges and so big a scam happening in so little a time has discredited the state," Swaraj said during a poll meeting here.

"The money looted during the Koda regime has also reached Delhi," she alleged.

Appealing to the electorate to give a mandate to the BJP-led NDA, Swaraj claimed only BJP could bring the state back on rails.

"Making an Independent MLA (Koda) the chief minister and subsequently Shibu Soren's defeat in Tamar (seeking to enter the house to continue as CM) threw the state in a state of chaos," Swaraj said.

She accused JMM of indulging in dynastic politics.
