Bihar Assembly serves notice to Anant Singh over plea to expel him
Mokama MLA has been given a week’s time to respond to the charges against him
Patna - The Bihar Assembly has delivered a notice to Mokama MLA Anant Singh, requesting him to respond to the Janata Dal (United)'s plea for the revocation of his Assembly membership within a week. Following the recent State Legislative Council elections on October 24, where Mr. Singh opposed the party's official candidate Neeraj Kumar, he and his wife Neelam Devi were expelled from the party for six years due to anti-party activities.
Kumar subsequently won the seat. Anant Singh, who was previously arrested in connection with a murder case, claims he has faith in the judiciary and intends to surrender by December 1. Ms. Devi was also removed from the government's 20-point programme committee and compelled to vacate her official bungalow in Patna.
