A lot has changed in the lives of these two politicians. The impact can be seen on February 12th. The floor test, which is a test of strength through the legislators, is being discussed more than the power test. Congress was the first to bring up the topic of horse trading. Now, everyone is claiming to have played the game. It seems that the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government with 128 legislators now has the support of 130. If the number of supporters does not reach 130, then the opposition’s number could be reduced from 114 to 112. The reason for this is explained further.
It took six months for this political reversal to occur. In September 2023, it was reported that Laloo Prasad Yadav, the national president of the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), did not give time to meet with Kshatriya leader Anand Mohan Singh. Anand Mohan’s son is a legislator of the RJD. On the other hand, Chief Minister Nitish Kumar returned from another state to bless the bride and groom at Anand Mohan’s house. Six months ago, the RJD was in power, but now they are in opposition. Nitish Kumar is still in power. It is well known that the Nitish government helped remove Anand Mohan.
However, these circumstances alone will not be the reason for RJD legislator Chetan Anand’s inclination towards the ruling party. Recently, the Supreme Court asked the central government to submit an affidavit regarding the legality of Anand Mohan’s release. The contents of this affidavit can give an idea of the situation. Chetan Anand or Anand Mohan may not be ready to say anything about this, but if necessary on February 12th, they can do a lot – this cannot be denied.
Remember the fireworks on January 28th in Bihar. When the Mahagathbandhan government ended and the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government was formed, there was a grand fireworks display at the residence of a former RJD legislator. Just a short distance from the Chief Minister’s residence, the sky was lit up with fireworks and the sound echoed. This former legislator is known as the “small government” supporter. Yes, he is Anant Singh. After being proven guilty, his wife Neelam Devi became a legislator from the RJD. She still is. Yet, a grand fireworks display took place at Anant Singh’s residence. Anant Singh is also a Bhumihar, just like former national president of the Janata Dal-United (JDU), Rajiv Ranjan Singh alias Lalan Singh. Both have almost the same area. There was a fight for the area and it is said that Lalan Singh’s strong presence in the JDU was the reason for Anant Singh’s distance from Nitish Kumar or the JDU. Now that Lalan is no longer in power, Anant Singh is at ease. It is possible that on December 29th, before the floor test, Mokama legislator Neelam Devi Pala may switch sides. It is being said that she has already distanced herself from Lalu and Tejashwi.
बिहार विधानसभा में राष्ट्रीय जनतांत्रिक गठबंधन का बहुमत परीक्षण होने वाला है और इसका नतीजा दोनों पक्षों के लिए महत्वपूर्ण होगा। इसके अलावा, राजद विधायक चेतन आनंद की विपक्ष की जगह सत्ता की ओर झुकाव देखने की संभावना है। सुप्रीम कोर्ट ने आनंद मोहन की रिहाई की वैधानिकता पर केंद्र सरकार से हलफनामा पेश करने कहा है जिससे इस मामले में नए बदलाव की संभावना है। इसके अलावा, बिहार की सत्ता में हुए पलटाव के बाद राजद के पूर्व विधायक अनंत सिंह के आवास पर आतिशबाजी हुई थी जिससे उनके समर्थकों में खुशी की लहर उमड़ी थी। इसके साथ ही, जदयू के पूर्व राष्ट्रीय अध्यक्ष राजीव रंजन सिंह उर्फ ललन सिंह का ताकतवर होना भी अनंत सिंह के नीतीश कुमार या जनता दल यूनाईटेड से दूर होने का कारण रहा है। इस बीच, बिहार की सत्ता में बदलाव के बाद राजद के विधायक नीलम देवी पाला की सीट बदलने की संभावना है।
