Click to play videoNew Delhi: The Jharkhand Chief Minister Madhu Koda is the first independent chief minister who does not belong to any political party but he certainly knows how to have a good party.
To sex up his government’s image, he has roped in item girl Koena Mitra as the brand ambassador for Jharkhand.
And he's hoping that the rest of India will be as smitten by Jharkhand as he certainly seems to be by Koena.
“Jharkhand is beautiful, but even more beautiful is Koena. It should work,” says Koda.
Koda's party-less leadership seems to be on the brink, the Congress, a partner in the UPA government headed by Koda is threatening to pull out of the coalition, saying the government has stopped working for the people.
So perhaps Koda is hoping that Koena as Miss Jharkhand will soon get warring coalition partners dancing to her tune.
Presented as the daughter of the east, the Calcutta-born actress is expected to change the fortune of Koda.
“I think it is an honour to be associated with this,” says Koena.
But who knows independent Koda and beautiful Koena could well end up making a song and dance about Jharkhand.
