After two decades with the BJP, former party worker Anil Kumar Jha joined the RJD in 2020 and has now been elected to Bihar’s Legislative Council from the Darbhanga graduate constituency.
Anil Kumar Jha, a former grassroots worker of the Bharatiya Janata Party, has secured a seat in the Bihar Legislative Council representing the Darbhanga graduate constituency. The result marks his first victory as a member of the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD).
Jha spent roughly twenty years organizing for the BJP before switching allegiance to the RJD in 2020. His long‑term involvement in party affairs gave him a deep understanding of local political dynamics, which he leveraged during the council election campaign.
The win underscores the RJD’s growing influence in the region and highlights the fluid nature of party affiliations among seasoned politicians in Bihar’s legislative landscape.
