The former CM is the lone member in the Cabinet from Jharkhand. The three-term CM, who has the distinction of holding the post for the longest period in the politically tumultuous state, won the reserved tribal seat of Khunti by a slim margin despite it being considered as a lost cause by BJP. Known as a crisis manager, he was just 35 when he was first chosen to lead the state in 2002 after NDA alliance partners sought the ouster of then CM Babulal Marandi. Munda went on to helm the state for two more terms.
