Breaking: Anand Mohan’s ‘JDU Became Money Bag Party’ Remark Triggers Political Storm in Bihar

A sharp political controversy has erupted in Bihar after senior JDU leader and former MP Anand Mohan launched a scathing attack on Nitish Kumar and the functioning of the Janata Dal (United). Anand Mohan claimed that Nitish Kumar has been “politically buried alive” within his own party and alleged that the JDU has now turned into a “money bag party.” He further questioned why Nitish Kumar’s photographs were missing from political posters and banners at party events despite being the party’s tallest leader. The remarks triggered immediate political reactions across Bihar. JDU leaders hit back strongly, alleging that Anand Mohan’s statements stem from disappointment over his son not being inducted as a minister. Party spokespersons dismissed the allegations as baseless and challenged claims regarding internal dissatisfaction within the party. The controversy gained further momentum after the Rashtriya Janata Dal backed Anand Mohan’s observations. RJD leaders claimed there are visible divisions within the JDU, with one faction allegedly favoring closer alignment with the BJP while another wishes to preserve Nitish Kumar’s independent socialist image in Bihar politics.The political angle has intensified because Anand Mohan’s family continues to hold significant positions within the JDU. His wife, Lovely Anand, is a Member of  Parliament from Sheohar, while his son Chetan Anand serves as an MLA from Nabinagar in Aurangabad district. The statements have fueled speculation about growing unease within the ruling alliance ahead of future political developments in Bihar, with opposition parties attempting to capitalize on the apparent internal tensions.
