Why it matters
The case highlights political accountability and the potential for high-level misconduct to impact the stability of the Bihar state government.
Lok Janshakti Party-Ram Vilas (LJP-RV) national president and Union Minister of Food Processing Industries Chirag Paswan on Monday (August 31, 2026) responded to allegations against his party’s MLA from Mahua and Minister of the Bihar Public Health Engineering Department, Sanjay Kumar Singh.

If the allegations against Mr. Singh were found to be true, Mr. Paswan said he would expel Mr. Singh from the LJP(RV) and the “strictest action” would be taken against him. The allegations are “very serious”, and the party had sought an explanation from Mr. Singh, Mr. Paswan said.
