Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (झारखंड मुक्ति मोर्चा) is a political party in India. It has a strength of 5 in the 14th Lok Sabha. 4 of its MPs are from Jharkhand. Shibu Soren is the president of JMM.

At the 2005 Jharkhand state assembly elections, the JMM took second place and received 17 of the 81 seats. It supports the government of Independent Chief Minister Madhu Koda which was formed in 2006. It continues to be an active part of the United Progressive Alliance. It has had its fair share of controvoersies when its MP's were involved in the bribery scam during the Rao Government and the fiasco in early 2005 about the Chief Minister of Jharkhand. Recently, one of its MP's was assassinated by Naxalites. After the loss to Bangladesh in 2007 Cricket World Cup, the house that Dhoni was constructing in his home-town Ranchi was vandalized and damaged by political activists of JMM.^[1]
