The last date of nomination for the elections to be held on 9 seats of Bihar Legislative Council and by-election to be held on one seat has been fixed as June 11. Just before this, on Friday (5 June 2026), Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) surprised everyone by releasing the list of its four candidates. The first and biggest name in this list was that of Bhojpuri world’s ‘Powerstar’ Pawan Singh.

Pawan Singh reached BJP’s state office in the capital Patna on Saturday (6 June 2026), the very next day after the candidate was declared for the MLC elections.

There was speculation for a long time about this Legislative Council election to be held in Bihar, but BJP has played a big bet by making Pawan Singh its candidate. Manipulation is going on for 9 seats of Bihar Legislative Council and 1 by-election seat. BJP had released the list of its 4 candidates on Friday (05 June), in which Pawan Singh’s name was at the top. The attitude and statement of Pawan Singh, who reached Patna office on Saturday (06 June), has made it clear that he is very serious about his new political innings.

Pawan Singh, known as the powerstar of Bhojpuri cinema, reached Ara Civil Court on Wednesday (March 25, 2026) in the ongoing divorce case with his second wife Jyoti Singh. He reached the court room around 2:20 in the afternoon. Pawan Singh’s wife Jyoti Singh did not reach the court today.

When he came out of the court after about 35-40 minutes, he looked dejected. According to the information, Pawan Singh’s wife Jyoti Singh was also present in the court today. The reason why she did not come is not known. On the other hand, as soon as the information about Pawan Singh’s arrival in the court was received, a crowd of his fans gathered outside the court premises.

Pawan Singh’s lawyer told the whole thing

Pawan Singh’s lawyer Suman Kumar told that today Pawan Singh and Jyoti Singh were called for reconciliation. Jyoti Singh did not reach the court due to some reason. The court also tried to hold talks through video conferencing, but Jyoti Singh could not be contacted. Pawan Singh told the judge in the court that I do not want to live with Jyoti Singh. According to the lawyer, Pawan Singh also said that he is ready to accept whatever one-time settlement there is.

Demand for Rs 10 crore and a house

In this case, Jyoti Singh’s lawyer Vishnudhar Pandey had told that if Pawan Singh does not want to live with Jyoti Singh, then he should give him Rs 10 crore and a house along with expenses till the case goes on. Let us tell you that on February 11, Jyoti Singh had reached the court in saree. Sindoor was also in demand. That day Pawan Singh had cited illness and did not reach the court. He was produced from the hospital bed through video conferencing.

It is noteworthy that Pawan Singh’s first wife Neelam Singh had committed suicide in the year 2015. After this, Bhojpuri superstar Pawan Singh’s affair with actress Akshara Singh started being discussed. However, Pawan Singh married Jyoti Singh, daughter of Rambabu Singh, resident of Ballia district of Uttar Pradesh, in 2018. Now the case is going on in the court.

These days, Pawan Singh remains in the limelight due to the controversies going on in his personal life. Various types of discussions often take place regarding the personal life of an actor. Many times he has even been accused of misbehaving with women.

But, beyond all this, there was also a woman in Pawan Singh’s life, whose loss he mourns till today. Recently Pawan Singh has remembered his first wife. He has also shared an emotional post. Pawan Singh has remembered his first wife Neelam Singh on her death anniversary.

Neelam had committed suicide

While sharing the picture of his late wife, the actor wrote, ‘I am incomplete without you, I will remain incomplete.’ It is known that Pawan Singh married Neelam in 2014. Neelam committed suicide just three months after marriage. After Neelam’s death, various types of allegations were made against Pawan Singh.

During this time it was also said that Pawan Singh did not take proper care of Neelam. Because of this, she became a victim of depression and committed suicide due to feeling lonely. However, Pawan Singh has mentioned his first wife Neelam many times on stage.

In a reality show he had described his wife as a goddess. The actor had said that there could be no other woman like Neelam, because she supported him in every situation. Pawan Singh has many times called the death of his first wife a stigma.

Pawan Singh says that he is still bearing the stigma of his wife’s death. After the death of his first wife, Pawan Singh married Jyoti Singh for the second time in 2018. But, this marriage also did not last. The divorce battle between both of them is going on in these two courts.

These days the political atmosphere in Bihar is heated regarding the Rajya Sabha elections. Before the elections to be held on 5 seats of Bihar, different types of discussions are going on regarding the names of possible candidates. Especially the stir in political circles regarding the faces associated with Bhojpuri cinema has intensified.

Meanwhile, actor and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Khesari Lal Yadav has reacted to the news of singer-actor Pawan Singh going to Rajya Sabha. Khesari Lal Yadav said, “Congratulations to him. Go, do better work.” He further said, “I am very happy where I am and I want to stay here.” This statement of his is being considered very important politically.

Rajya Sabha elections on 5 seats of Bihar

Rajya Sabha elections are to be held on 5 seats of Bihar. Voting will take place on March 16. The last date for filing nomination has been fixed as March 5. The special thing is that Holi is on 4th March, that is, the last date for nomination will be the next day of Holi.

As the election date approaches, all the parties have started making strategies at their respective levels. A round of internal meetings is going on regarding the names of possible candidates.

Discussion was raised earlier also regarding Pawan Singh

Even before this, political discussion regarding Pawan Singh has gained momentum. Even during the Bihar Assembly elections, it had come to light that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) could field him. It is being said that during the assembly elections, BJP had promised him that he would be sent to Rajya Sabha. During the same time, Pawan Singh had also campaigned in support of BJP. Although no official announcement has been made by the party yet, the market of discussions is hot.

Khesari maintained a firm stance

Khesari Lal Yadav’s statement is being considered quite balanced. He neither made any kind of criticism nor created any controversy with any kind of comment. Now everyone’s eyes are on which names get the final approval for Rajya Sabha. The coming few days are considered very important for the politics of Bihar.

Before the Rajya Sabha elections, actor-singer and BJP leader Pawan Singh met the party’s national president Nitin Naveen in Delhi on Thursday (26 February). After this meeting, Pawan Singh said that he took blessings from Nitin Nabin and this was a courtesy meeting. On the question whether BJP will send him to Rajya Sabha, he said, “I am a brother, whatever the boss wants will not happen.”

Last date for filing nomination is March 5

Let us tell you that Rajya Sabha elections are to be held on five seats of Bihar. Elections will be held on 16 March. The last date for filing nomination is March 5. Holi is on 4th March, that means the last date will be the next day of Holi.

Political discussion has already gained momentum regarding Pawan Singh. Even during the Bihar Assembly elections, it was discussed that BJP could field him. Pawan Singh’s name also came into the headlines during the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. But the party did not take any such decision. It is being said that during the assembly elections, BJP had promised him that he would be sent to Rajya Sabha. Pawan Singh had campaigned in support of BJP during Bihar Assembly elections.

Not a single BJP MP on the vacant seat

There is currently no BJP MP on the five Rajya Sabha seats that are falling vacant in Bihar. Two seats are vacant for JDU, two seats for RJD and one seat for Upendra Kushwaha. Upendra Kushwaha is the President of Rashtriya Lok Morcha. During the assembly elections, Upendra Kushwaha was also promised one Rajya Sabha seat and one MLC seat. At present, Upendra Kushwaha’s son Deepak Prakash is a minister in Bihar and he is not a member of any house. It is considered certain that he will become MLC. The seats of JDU’s Harivansh and Ramnath Thakur are going to be vacant. Whereas RJD’s Premchand Gupta and Amarendra Dhari Singh are retiring.

Bhojpuri singer and BJP MP Manoj Tiwari’s Holi special song ‘Holaria..’ has come into discussion as soon as it was released. Along with colours, a touch of satire has also been added to the song, on which people are talking a lot. In this there is mention of PM to CM. He has also targeted opposition leaders. But some special lines have grabbed the most headlines. Lines like ‘Khetwa mein power dikhawe pawanwa, Gadhwa mein kudal khesaria’ are becoming increasingly viral on social media.

Taunts on big names through gestures
There is a lot of discussion about this in Bhojpuri and political circles. It is believed that Manoj Tiwari has targeted big names of the industry through his songs.

Comment on the tussle in the industry
Manoj Tiwari has also tried to bring forward the ongoing conflict within the Bhojpuri industry through this song. He has put face cutouts of big actors of Bhojpuri industry on some people and reacted with them in the song. ‘Kumbh Ke Paani Piyatwa Kishanwa’ was associated with Ravi Kishan, ‘Nirahua Bataye Paniya’ was associated with Dinesh Lal Yadav Nirahua.

Similarly, the line ‘showing power in Khetwa, Pawanwa and Gadhwa me Kudal Khesaria’ was linked to Pawan Singh and Khesari Lal Yadav. In the name of Holi, the song has taken sarcasm on the internal conflicts of the industry.

Khesari Lal Yadav’s reaction
After the release of the song, Khesari Lal Yadav also reacted to it. He said that Manoj Tiwari is a politician and politicians keep making such statements. He clearly said that he does not want to comment on his words because he has a personal relationship with him. Khesari described him as an elder brother and said that he has always respected him.

Traditional style and light message
An attempt has been made to blend the traditional Holi style and Bhojpuri sweetness in the song. At last Manoj Tiwari says smilingly, ‘It’s Holi brother, don’t feel bad.’ Through this line, he has tried to convey the message that the song should be taken lightly in the festive mood and should not be taken too seriously.

There is anger in the RJD camp over a statement given in the assembly by Maithili Thakur, MLA from Alinagar seat of Darbhanga in Bihar and a well-known singer. Maithili had compared Lalu Prasad Yadav’s son Moh with Mahabharata’s Dhritarashtra, on which now Bhojpuri actor Khesari Lal Yadav has retaliated and given advice to the BJP MLA. He said that his knowledge is very little.

Khesari Lal Yadav took a dig at BJP MLA Maithili Thakur and said, “When achievements are achieved at a young age, a person speaks like this.” Therefore there is a need for educated people. Those who have knowledge about the country and the world should get this stature and position. He is in an election environment. He is also an artist. He should not use such words because Tejashwi Yadav ji has always been like an elder brother and Lalu Prasad Yadav ji is like a father to him. So they should not use such language at all.

Coming into politics does not mean forgetting values ​​- Khesari Lal

RJD leader Khesari Lal Yadav further said, “Entering politics does not mean that we lose humanity and forget our values. Politics is a good thing, the world has chosen you for your good, so work on it. By belittling someone and calling someone wrong, we do not think that people are going to be benefited. Bihar’s progress will happen through work. There will be no progress by doing good or bad to anyone.

What did Khesari Lal say about Pawan Singh?

When he was asked that Pawan Singh has sung a song that Pawan Singh’s power should be seen in the field and Khesaria in the pit, is RJD a pit? On this he said, “Wherever he is is good for him, where I am is good for me.” He is a politician so politicians keep speaking like this. I don’t go by his words because I have a personal relationship with him. I feel that as an elder brother, I have always respected him and will continue to do so throughout my life. Neither music nor the people of Bihar can be benefited by talking about this and that in the world.

Rajya Sabha seats are becoming vacant in Bihar. On five seats, the tenure of sitting MPs Premchand Gupta and AD Singh of Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), Harivansh and Ramnath Thakur of Janata Dal United (JDU) and Upendra Kushwaha of Rashtriya Lok Morcha (RLM) are completing. Elections will be held on 16 March. Of the five vacant seats, RJD and JDU have two seats each and Rashtriya Lok Morcha has one seat.

BJP may gain two seats and RJD may lose two seats. For one seat in Rajya Sabha, votes of 41 MLAs are required. Accordingly, NDA will win four seats comfortably. After winning four seats, NDA will have votes left for 38 MLAs. To win the fifth seat, NDA will need three MLAs. If all the 41 MLAs of the opposition come together and decide their candidate and vote for him, then the opposition can get one seat. If NDA and opposition also field candidates on the 5th seat, there will be scope for horse-trading of MLAs.

In 2025, NDA achieved majority by winning 202 seats.

According to the information, there are a total of 243 MLAs in Bihar Assembly. For 5 seats, a candidate needs about 41 votes to win. In the 2025 Bihar Assembly elections, the NDA alliance won an overwhelming majority by winning 202 out of 243 seats. BJP got 89 seats, while JDU won 85 seats. Apart from this, LJP got 19 seats, HAM got 5 and RLM got 4 seats. In the grand alliance, RJD got 25 seats and Congress got 6 seats. Apart from this, CPI (ML) got 2 seats, CPI (M) got 1 seat and IIP got 1 seat.

In this way, the Grand Alliance has only 35 MLAs. Apart from this, 5 MLAs of AIMIM and 1 MLA of BSP are included in other parties. This time through Rajya Sabha elections, BJP-JDU is working on a mix of caste balance, regional representation and high-profile faces. BJP can send Bhojpuri actor and singer Pawan Singh to Rajya Sabha. According to sources, BJP is also brainstorming on the name of some big Brahmin and Rajput leader.

Ramnath Thakur is sure to go to Rajya Sabha once again

It is considered certain that Ramnath Thakur will once again enter Rajya Sabha from JDU quota. At the same time, there is doubt in JDU regarding Harivansh Narayan Singh. Generally it is seen that Nitish Kumar sends any leader to Rajya Sabha only twice. According to sources, JDU National General Secretary Manish Verma comes from Kurmi caste.

Rajya Sabha is also considering sending him or any minority. If BJP gives its candidates on two seats, then NDA can field Upendra Kushwaha on the fifth seat.

RJD may send Premchand Gupta to Rajya Sabha again

Talking about the opposition, AIMIM has demanded from the opposition parties to send Bihar President and MLA Akhtarul Iman to Rajya Sabha. Party’s national spokesperson Adil Hasan has made this demand and sought support from the opposition. RJD can again send Rajya Sabha member Premchand Gupta to Rajya Sabha. For this, support can be sought from opposition parties.

Talking to ABP News, MIM Bihar President and MLA Akhtarul Iman said that we will field candidates in the Rajya Sabha elections in Bihar. Opposition parties should cooperate with us. If you want to stop communal forces then support us. We are always here to support you. We will give our candidate. We do not have a single member in Rajya Sabha.

Let us tell you that Akhtarul’s statement is a blow to the Grand Alliance parties especially RJD because RJD is trying to field its candidate and may seek support from Owaisi.

JDU chief spokesperson Legislative Councilor Neeraj Kumar said that it is an internal matter of the opposition whether it will give a candidate or not, but the situation of RJD has become so bad that it cannot even give its candidate. RJD should answer whether it will support MIM or not. The public made RJD sit at home. NDA will win all five seats. The top leadership of NDA will decide together who will be the candidates of NDA.

Opposition will field one candidate in Rajya Sabha – Mrityunjay Tiwari

RJD spokesperson Mrityunjay Tiwari said that the opposition will field 1 candidate in the Rajya Sabha elections. All opposition parties together will field one candidate and win. Who will be the candidate and from which party? The opposition parties will decide this together. We will talk to all opposition parties including Left party, AIMIM, BSP, Congress. Must have played also. Many NDA MLAs will also do cross voting.

BJP spokesperson Kuntal Krishna said that NDA will win all five seats. Candidates will give NDA on all five seats. The decision on which candidates will be from which party will be taken soon. Talks are going on between the allies. There is a fight going on in the Grand Alliance for one seat. Grand alliance is out of elections. The public sat at home during the assembly elections.

Pawan Singh has created a distinct identity in the industry on the basis of his hard work. In his career so far, he has worked in many blockbuster films. He has also given many superhit songs. Pawan Singh, who was always successful in professional life, was always surrounded by controversies in personal life.

For the past several days, he has been in the news regarding the ongoing divorce dispute with his wife Jyoti Singh. Apart from this, Pawan Singh often creates new controversies with his statements. Let us know what he has said now. Pawan Singh had recently attended an event.

Pawan Singh got angry

During this, the actor talked on many issues. Meanwhile, when it came to obscenity in Bhojpuri, he got angry. After that he also raised many questions regarding Hindi songs, the video of which is going viral rapidly.

Pawan Singh said, ‘What is this, Munni got disgraced darling for you? The brother-in-law was sleeping on the terrace, what is there behind the blouse, and so on and so is the baby… The line of my song is ‘Ye hai tu lagavelu jab lipstick.. Hilela aara sara distrikt, zila top lagelu, kamariya kare lapalap, lollipop lagelu.’ This is it. In which industry there is no good and bad? But perhaps I have not seen anyone being questioned about whether he is this or that. This is that, why is this? But for Bhojpuri, if a Pawan Singh sits on any stage, the question definitely arises that there is obscenity in Bhojpuri.

Pawan Singh further said, ‘I want to tell you what is this Munni, I have become famous darling for you, brother-in-law was sleeping on the terrace, what is there behind the blouse and baby baby… if we look at it, there is good and bad in every industry. The question does not arise anywhere. Maybe I haven’t even seen it. This is the same question that arises in Bhojpuri again and again on every platform, how many times will a person answer?

Controversy is often seen between Powerstar Pawan Singh and Bhojpuri’s ‘Hit Machine’ Khesari Lal Yadav. On one hand, Pawan Singh is associated with BJP, while on the other hand, Khesari Lal contested the 2025 assembly elections on RJD ticket. That means the favorite party of both is also different. There was controversy even during the elections. Just a few days ago, Pawan Singh had said that he would never want to meet Khesari Lal Yadav. Now Khesari Lal Yadav’s reply has come on this.

On Thursday (February 05, 2026), Khesari Lal Yadav gave his reaction on this while talking to the media at Patna Airport. Khesari Lal Yadav said that if he does not want to meet us then it is his wish. Every man is free in his life. Whether he meets anyone or not is his own matter. I have always respected everyone, this will be his personal opinion.

My image was created by my work: Khesari Lal Yadav

Khesari Lal further said, “Neither their house runs because of me nor my house runs because of them. The image that I have created in the hearts of people is made up of doing better work. It is made up of better artistry, better songs and better cinema. I see myself as an artist. Well, all these things keep happening. It cannot be talked about much.”

When Khesari was asked whether he would meet him? He said that he was never in need of me, but I was always there for him. Be it their elections or any of their issues, I always want to see them better as a family. It is their own wish to meet me or not, because even though I have reached here, I have not met them. I have reached here through my hard work.

A few days ago, Khesari Lal Yadav had said about Pawan Singh that one of his songs is international, four of my songs are international. On this, Pawan Singh had retorted by saying that I laugh at what he (Khesari) said, his song will play on space. On this, Khesari Lal Yadav said that it is good that his younger brother’s song will be played on space and if he has his blessings, we will try to get my song played on space.
