Former MP Anand Mohan will now be released in Bihar, politics hot
Patna (IANS) | In Bihar, former MP and Bahubali leader Anand Mohan is going to be released from jail very soon. Anand Mohan, who is serving life sentence after the change in the prison rules of the Bihar government, is currently out of jail on parole. Here, the politics has now become heated due to the change in the law regarding the release of Anand Mohan.
The Bihar government has issued a notification regarding the release of 27 prisoners including Anand Mohan from jail. Anand Mohan was convicted in the murder of Gopalganj District Magistrate G Krishnaiah in 1994 and was serving a life sentence.
In fact, the Bihar government had deleted the very phrase from the prison handbook, which referred to the murder of a government employee. The Government of Bihar had made this amendment in the Bihar Prison Manual 2012.
The Law Department of Bihar Government has issued an order to release 27 prisoners including Anand Mohan from jail.
Here, after the change in this rule, the politics of Bihar has become hot. Lalan Singh, president of the ruling Janata Dal United in Bihar, tweeted on Tuesday from his Twitter handle, fiercely targeting former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati and the BJP. He tweeted and wrote, “Now the BJP has come out in the open on the release of Anand Mohan. Earlier it was getting UP’s B team to protest. BJP should know that there is no difference between a common man and a special person in Nitish Kumar’s good governance. This is not done. Anand Mohan served the full sentence and the exemption that any convicted person gets, he was not getting that exemption because there was a provision in the rule for special people. Nitish Kumar made the difference between common and special. Finished it and brought uniformity, then the way for their release was paved. Now, don’t know why BJP’s stomach is getting pain.
“BJP’s principle is to put pet parrots on the opponents, to save the loved ones and to implicate the opponents, while in Nitish Kumar’s good governance, neither anyone is trapped nor anyone is saved.”
Earlier, former Chief Minister of UP Mayawati tweeted and asked to reconsider this decision. He wrote in a tweet that a very honest ji from the poor Dalit community living in Mahbubnagar, Andhra Pradesh (now Telangana) was made an IAS by the Nitish government of Bihar. The preparation to release Anand Mohan in the case of the brutal murder of Krishnaya by changing the rules is in the news all over the country due to negative anti-Dalit reasons.
He further said that Anand Mohan has been the compulsion of many governments in Bihar, but the anti-Dalit and pro-crime work of the Nitish government regarding the murder case of the then DM Krishnaya of Gopalganj has created a lot of anger in the Dalit community across the country. Even if there is some compulsion, the Bihar government must reconsider it.
It is worth mentioning that these days Anand Mohan is out of jail on parole for doing demanding work at home. His son’s engagement was on Monday, in which Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav and JDU President Lalan Singh also reached.
