Who is Anant Singh?
Anant Singh is a five-time legislator from the Mokama constituency and represents the JDU in the Bihar Legislative Assembly. He is popularly known in the area as “Chhote Sarkar”.
Singh has remained a controversial figure in Bihar politics because of several criminal cases against him, including allegations related to murder, assault and illegal possession of arms.
