Deepak Prakash, son of RLM Chief Upendra Kushwaha, has now become Panchayati Raj Minister in the NDA government. He has also taken charge. On the other hand, the opposition is cornering the NDA government on the appointment of ministers in the government, while on the other hand, another issue has started. It is about Deepak Prakash becoming a counting agent. Questions were already being raised regarding this on RJD as well as on social media, but now Tej Pratap Yadav has raised the issue.
National President of Janashakti Janata Dal Tej Pratap Yadav wrote from his X handle last Sunday (November 23, 2025) night, “Deepak Prakash became the counting agent of the independent candidate Ramayan Paswan who had confiscated the security deposit in Sasaram. He became a minister in the Nitish government without contesting the elections. Isn’t it the magic of Modi-Nitish?”

RJD had raised the question before Tej Pratap
Before Tej Pratap Yadav, the same question was asked from RJD’s handle on 22nd November. It was written, “Deepak Prakash, who got the security deposit confiscated in Sasaram, became the counting agent of independent candidate Ramayan Paswan and became a minister in the Nitish government without contesting elections. Isn’t it the magic of Modi-Nitish? What kind of development is needed in Bihar now?”
Now understand what is the whole matter
About 22 candidates had contested from Sasaram assembly constituency in the 2025 assembly elections. Ramayan Paswan’s counting agent, who contested as an independent candidate, was Deepak Prakash, son of RLMO supremo Upendra Kushwaha, who is now the Panchayati Raj Minister. Ramayan Paswan got the election symbol Baby Walker. He got 327 votes. The bail was confiscated.
On the other hand, the biggest thing is that Deepak Prakash was sitting as an agent on the RO table to count his 327 votes, about which questions are now being raised. Not only this, his mother Snehlata Kushwaha had also contested elections from this assembly constituency. She has also won. After Deepak became a minister, his ID card issued by RO during the elections is going viral on social media. Now Tej Pratap has also shared this.
Counting agent means that person who remains ready at the counting table on the counting day as a representative of the candidate in the counting hall. Most of the big political parties appoint their own counting agents. The pass is made with the signature of the returning officer. In such a situation, the question is that when Deepak Prakash’s mother Snehlata was contesting elections in Sasaram, then why did he become the agent of an independent candidate named Ramayan Paswan?
