Anant Singh claims nobody can question his loyalty to Nitish Kumar

Anant Singh, a Janata Dal (United) MLA, has asserted that no one can question his loyalty to former Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar. This claim comes in the wake of Singh's decision to boycott the candidacy of Neera Kumar Singh in the Patna graduates' constituency, opting instead to back JD(U) candidate Anuj Singh. Singh further alleged that during Nitish Kumar's early political days, he had "nine people killed," and claimed that no one has made greater sacrifices for the party than he has.

Despite these remarks, Singh stated that he is not challenging Nitish Kumar or the JD(U). He emphasized that his stance on Neeraj Kumar remains unchanged, and he will continue to oppose him. Bihar BJP State President Sanjay Saraogi strongly condemned Jan Suraaj Party founder Prashant Kishor's alleged remarks during a poll campaign, calling for an end to violent rhetoric and criticizing Kishor's language and conduct.
