New Delhi. Anant Singh, MLA from Mokama, Bihar, has been expelled from the party by Janata Dal (United). JDU has canceled his primary membership with immediate effect and expelled him from the party for six years. Not only this, JDU has also recommended to the Bihar Assembly Speaker that Ananth Kumar Singh's Legislative Assembly membership should be canceled under the Tenth Schedule of the Indian Constitution. Apart from this, the primary membership of Anant Singh's wife and former MLA Neelam Devi has also been canceled and she has also been expelled from the party for six years.
Action has been taken against Anant Singh and his wife on charges of involvement in anti-party activities and indiscipline. Several reasons have been given by JDU for taking action against Anant Singh, which include continuously disobeying the party's instructions for the past several days, using indecent and derogatory language towards the party's top leadership and working against the party's candidate in the recently concluded Legislative Council elections and campaigning in favor of the rival party's candidate. Let us tell you that Anant Singh had openly supported Jansuraj Party candidate Anuj Singh against JDU's MLC candidate Neeraj Singh and had sought votes in his favor.
During the elections, there were many heated exchanges between Anant Singh and Neeraj Singh. Now, the very next day after the completion of elections, JDU has taken a tough stand and shown Anant Singh the way out of the party. Anant Singh's name is taken among the strong leaders of Bihar. He has been MLA from Mokama seat 6 times. Anant Singh had contested the assembly elections held last year while in jail and he also won.
