BJP's Basant Soreng, Menan Ekka of the Jharkhand Party, Congress's Naman Vixcel Kongadi , Anil Kandulna of Sengel Party and an Independent candidate, Basant Dungdung, are in the fray, they said.
The bypoll was necessitated after Enos Ekka, a Jharkhand party MLA, lost his membership following his conviction in a murder case.
