Just a few days before the Bihar Assembly elections 2025, there has been a big turn in the politics of the state. JDU candidate and Bahubali image leader Anant Singh was arrested by Patna Police. This arrest has been made in the murder case of Dularchand Yadav, which has focused the attention of the entire state on Mokama seat.
Anant Singh was caught by the police from Kargil Market located in Barh area of Patna district. Two close associates were also detained along with him. Preparations are underway to present all three in court. Patna SSP Karthikeya K Sharma said that a few days ago there was a clash between supporters of two candidates, in which 75-year-old Dularchand Yadav died. During investigation, it was found that Anant Singh was present at the spot at the time of the incident, hence he has been made the main accused.
Postmortem report changed the case
The postmortem report that came during the investigation of the murder has raised many questions. According to the report, Dularchand Yadav died not due to bullet but due to serious injuries on his body. His ribs were broken and his lungs were also damaged. This has increased the possibility that he was crushed by a vehicle or attacked as part of a conspiracy.
Election Commission took strict action against officials
After the incident, the Election Commission took rapid steps at the administrative level. Flood SDO Chandan Kumar was removed and the responsibility was given to IAS Ashish Kumar. Many police officers were transferred and some were suspended. Patna Rural SP Vikram Sihag was also transferred. The Commission has asked for a detailed report of this entire incident from the DGP of Bihar.
Increased vigilance in police department
After the murder, Ghoswari and Bhadaur police station in-charge have been suspended. Additional police forces have been deployed across the district so that the election atmosphere remains calm and any kind of violence does not recur.
Anant Singh also filed a complaint
Before his arrest, Anant Singh had filed an FIR against his opponent Piyush Priyadarshi and some others. He says that this is a political conspiracy. However, the police claim that there is a lot of evidence against him and the investigation is moving in the same direction.
Election impact and changing equations
With the arrest of Anant Singh, the electoral equations on Mokama seat have completely changed. This seat has already been the center of muscle power and caste politics. Now the situation may become more difficult for JDU, while the opposition parties are preparing to campaign vigorously among the public by making this incident an election issue.
bihar election 2025 dates
Assembly elections in the state will be held in two phases. The first phase is on 6 November and the second phase is on 11 November 2025. Counting of votes will be done on 14 November. This arrest before these dates can definitely give a new turn to the politics of Bihar.
