Anant Singh’s Daughter’s Wedding To Be A Mega Affair, Feast Arrangements For 4 Lakh Guests
Bihar strongman and Mokama MLA Anant Singh is gearing up for a grand celebration as his daughter Shivangi Singh prepares to tie the knot with Rishikesh Kumar on November 25. The wedding is expected to be an extravagant affair, with arrangements being made to welcome and serve food to nearly four lakh people.
The marriage ceremony will be held at Singh’s ancestral village, Ladma, in Bihar. Preparations are underway on a large scale, with workers racing against time to complete the arrangements ahead of the big day.
Special artisans from Mau in Uttar Pradesh have been engaged to construct an elaborate pandal and the stage for the traditional garland-exchange ceremony. The main structure is scheduled to be completed by November 20. A separate enclosure will also be set up to accommodate VIP guests.
A massive 100-foot-long cemented platform is being constructed for the bride and groom. The stage will reportedly be decorated using around 150 quintals of decorative material and ornaments.
The celebrations will also extend to Bihta, where a new house is being constructed for the groom’s family. Several wedding ceremonies and rituals are expected to take place at the residence. The wedding procession will travel from Bihta to Anant Singh’s ancestral village in Ladma for the main marriage ceremony.
The guest list is likely to feature several well-known faces from politics and the entertainment industry. Around 36 Bollywood and regional film personalities, including Sonu Sood, Manoj Tiwari, Maithili Thakur, Akshara Singh and Pawan Singh, are reportedly expected to attend.
Singh has also said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be invited to the wedding. According to him, invitations have been extended to leaders from both the ruling and opposition parties, along with guests from different parts of India and Pakistan. He maintained that political rivalries should be put aside for a wedding celebration.
The lavish preparations come at a time when Anant Singh is facing legal proceedings in the Dular Chand Yadav murder case. He may be required to surrender before the authorities by December 1, following a Supreme Court directive. Singh was arrested in October last year over allegations of orchestrating the murder and was granted bail in March.
The MLA has also been in the news over his controversial remarks claiming responsibility for the deaths of nine people during the political tenure of former Chief Minister Nitish Kumar. He subsequently withdrew the statement, clarifying that he had meant that nine of his associates were allegedly killed during the Lalu Prasad Yadav government because of their association with Nitish Kumar.
The Janata Dal (United) distanced itself from the remarks and expelled Singh from the party for six years over indiscipline.
