The way has been cleared for Bihar’s infamous history-sheeter and mafia-turned-politician Anand Mohan’s release from jail. He The then District Magistrate of Gopalganj G. He was serving life sentence in Krishnaiah’s murder case. However, the lower court sentenced him to death. When former MP Anand Mohan appealed in the High Court, his death sentence was commuted to life imprisonment, which was also upheld by the Supreme Court. Currently, Anand Mohan, who is lodged in Saharsa Jail, may be released soon, as the Bihar government has amended Rule 481 (i) (a) of ‘Jail Manual 2012’ to get him out. Earlier it was written in the jail manual of Bihar, that for killing a government official on duty, he will not be released after the end of life imprisonment, but now this line has been removed and now Anand Mohan can come out anytime.
This release is more political than legal
A section of the society has been demanding the release of Anand Mohan for a long time. Now you also understand that even though he was a history-sheeter, a mafia, he was also a hero of a section of the society. It has a rich tradition in Bihar. Like, Shahabuddin has been there, Anant Singh is there, Sunil Pandey is there, Surajbhan is there and don’t know how many are or were. Don’t go too far, just look at the reactions after Atiq Ahmed was killed in UP. So, the villain of one section of the society is the hero of another section. It does not mean that I am justifying someone’s crime. This is a general trend I am pointing out.
Along with Anand Mohan, you will remember that other colorful Bahubali blossomed in the politics of Bihar. Anant Singh will even get Nitish ji’s picture with Lalan Singh with folded hands in the posture of application. So, the plan on the release of Anand Mohan was actually of our Chief Minister’s thinking. He did not want Anand Mohan to leave now, so he was closed. Now with his grace, the jail manual itself was changed. Now Anand Mohan will be released anytime. It is more a part of the political process than the judicial process, as I said before.
Nitish Kumar was never ‘Good Governance Kumar’
I hope you will not forget that Nitish Kumar was part of the same government for the first 7 years of the so-called Jungle Raj from 1990 to 2015. Then later, even though he kept abusing his own government, he also became the Chief Minister while giving it. The memories of that Jungle Raj were so bitter, his experience was so burning that when Nitish Kumar took over the reins in 2005, people started considering him as a deity in comparison. The difference was only of degree. Means, after leaving the scorching sun of 50 degree, you may have come to 45 degree, the rest of the heat was the same even then. The pain was the same. In fact, people were so fed up with Laluraj that they considered Nitish as a healer. Yes, he had also worked to some extent on law and order. However, gradually all the wealth was lost.
Now the condition is that Nitish Kumar has turned so many times that even he himself cannot remember what was his previous stand? You see now. Liquor ban has become such a big disaster, it has killed so many people. Every child in every district of Bihar knows who is the mafia, in which district where smuggling is taking place, but if any one person does not know anything about this, then it is our honorable Chief Minister. A couple of days back, the sand mafia has run over and killed the lady inspector. If you ask him, he will express surprise- ‘Hey, I don’t even know about this. Now I have come to know from you people. So, the behavior of our Chief Minister is like that of an adult criminal, like a vicious criminal.
Eye on vote bank on the pretext of Anand Mohan
You must remember, Nitish Kumar’s visit to Delhi last fortnight, talk of opposition unity or the recent developments, all these point towards a bigger design. By the way, let us tell you that the kind of opposition unity that has been prepared, a perfect example of which has been Vishwanath Pratap, or George Fernandes, Nitish Kumar is not such a material. One year is not much time. According to the same timing, I am saying that Anand Mohan’s release is completely political.
You see that Owaisi’s party AIIM has also entered Bihar. Its condition is also strong in Seemanchal. Whom will he harm..Obviously RJD. Loss of RJD means loss of Grand Alliance. So, efforts are being made to fill this loss. To make up for the vote bank of Mahadalits, Nitish Kumar has announced a compensation of Rs 4 lakh to the victims of spurious liquor. This is the same Nitish Kumar who shamelessly made this statement in the assembly that if he drinks, he will die.
Anand Mohan is also BJP’s counter
You see that BJP was also putting strings on Anand Mohan. Right now the reason behind his release was purely the fear that he might go and join the BJP. Brother, see, politics is all about opportunism. If it was a matter of principles, the leaders would not have defected at all. Now the BJP has made Samrat Chaudhary the president because he will cater to the Kurmi votes. Otherwise, he is not fit to be the president of a big party like BJP. Overall, it is all a matter of social engineering. Now through Sanjay Jaiswal the tradesmen were targeted, on the other hand the Yadavs were targeted through Nityanand Rai, similarly they were in search of Anand Mohan.
Nitish Kumar is a strong leader, but he also needs support. Right now there is no leader of Rajputs in Bihar who is universally accepted. It is also a different matter that the golden era of Anand Mohan has passed, but it is certain that if not an elephant, then it is an elephant’s chain.
