JDU’s Bold Purge In Bihar: Former Minister Among 11 Leaders Expelled For Anti-Party Activities

Bihar: The ruling Janata Dal United (JDU) in the state has taken significant action. Several prominent figures have been expelled from the party. According to party information, these include ministers, former MLAs, and MLCs. This action by the JDU has caused a stir within the party. A notification regarding these expulsions has been issued by the party's state general secretary and headquarters in-charge for establishments, Chandan Kumar Singh.

JDU Expels 11 Senior Leaders

According to information provided by the party, the senior leaders expelled from the party include former minister Shailesh Kumar, former Legislative Councilor Sanjay Prasad, former MLA Shyam Bahadur Singh from Barharia, former Legislative Councilor Ranvijay Singh from Barhara Bhojpur, and former MLA Sudarshan Kumar from Barbigha. Apart from this, Amar Kumar Singh from Begusarai, Dr. Asma Parveen from Vaishali, Luv Kumar from Nabinagar in Aurangabad, Asha Suman from Kadwa Katihar, Divyanshu Bhardwaj from Motihari East Champaran, and Vivek Shukla from Jiradei Siwan have also been shown the way out of the party.

Leaving JDU, many independents entered the fray

It's worth noting that the HAM party had previously taken significant action. The party had expelled several prominent leaders, citing anti-party activities. This significant action by the JDU, just before the first phase of the elections, is now being widely discussed. According to sources, some of these leaders were denied tickets for the upcoming assembly elections, leading to growing resentment against the party leadership. Several leaders had decided to leave the JDU and contest as independent candidates.

JDU tried to strengthen the organization

Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has given clear instructions that indiscipline will not be tolerated before the elections. The party organization will now only work with those who are loyal to the JDU's ideology, leadership, and policies. Political analysts believe this move is part of a "damage control" strategy by the JDU to convey a message of unity in the upcoming elections.
