Janata Dal (United) (JD(U)) expels Bihar MLA Anant Kumar Singh for six years and moves to cancel or disqualify his membership/MLA standing, while also expelling his wife, Neelam Devi, for the same period. The party cites “anti-party activities,” framing the action as conduct that breaches party discipline.
Several outlets add that JD(U) links Singh’s expulsion to his campaigning for other candidates connected to Bihar’s Legislative Council election. Times of India further reports that the party cites an office order dated October 24 for the decisions. India Today similarly describes the expulsion as being for anti-party activities, focusing on Singh’s role as an MLA and the duration of the ban.
Across coverage, the core facts remain consistent: both Singh and Neelam Devi are expelled for six years by JD(U), with the party also seeking formal consequences for Singh’s position. Differences mainly concern how completely each outlet describes the specific conduct and the procedural steps sought.
