Bihar MLA Anant Singh, after being expelled from the JD(U) party for six years over alleged anti-party activities, has said he has no regrets over the action and asserted that the party has no political future.
The JD(U) has expelled Mokama MLA Anant Singh and his wife, former MLA Neelam Devi, from the party for six years over alleged anti-party activities during the recent Bihar Legislative Council elections.
JD(U) state president Umesh Kushwaha announced the action on Saturday, citing repeated violations of party directives, alleged derogatory remarks against the party’s senior leadership, and Anant Singh’s decision to oppose the party’s candidate in the Patna Graduates’ constituency election and campaign in support of a candidate associated with Jan Suraaj. The public is like God, and whatever action they have taken, it was the right decision. I have no problem with it. The party belonged to Nitish Kumar, and he made the decisions himself. What is left in the party now? Who contributed to it? The party has expelled me, but what have those people done? What will we do next? “Nitish Kumar is no longer there. The party belonged to him, and now that he is gone, the party is also finished. I do not know who ordered this action; perhaps those who have taken control of the party are responsible,” he added. Singh further mentioned, “I will make my own party. I will stay where I am; I never asked for a ticket. I believe the JD(U) has no future. I will meet him again.
The JD(U) will face trouble in at least 10 seats.
Speaking to reporters, Singh said, “I have no regrets. It will become clear during the elections,” Anant Singh said. Reiterating his position on Nitish Kumar, Singh said, “I have no differences or disputes with Nitish Kumar. He further said, “I will never criticise Nitish Ji, whatever party I go to.
