Anant Singh’s Rs 2 crore gift for son-in-law, assets over Rs 100 crore
The Story in Brief
Bihar MLA Anant Singh will gift his son-in-law a Land Rover Defender worth Rs 2 crore at his daughter Shivangi's wedding on 25 November. His younger son Abhinav will also receive a BMW at his sacred thread ceremony, according to reports from bhaskar.com and aajtak.in. The wedding in Nadvana village will feature a 10-bigha pandal, horse racing with a Thar as prize, and 150 food varieties, prabhatkhabar.com adds.
Election affidavits filed in 2025 show Singh and his wife Neelam Devi have combined assets of Rs 106 crore (bhaskar.com) or Rs 100.61 crore (aajtak.in, prabhatkhabar.com). Their total declared liabilities are about Rs 25.99 crore. Singh holds stakes in three construction companies, including Darp Construction in Patna which built 'The Mall' on Fraser Road, with a Rs 10.18 crore investment. Properties include commercial buildings, residential flats in Delhi's Greater Kailash-2 and Gurgaon, and land across Bihar and Noida.
Update, 10 November 2026: Prabhatkhabar.com now reports the same wedding and asset details, confirming the Rs 100.61 crore figure and adding that Singh owns horses, an elephant, and cows worth about Rs 1.90 lakh. It also notes Rs 86.61 lakh in gold and silver and Rs 10.40 crore invested by Singh in bonds and shares.
Indian Opinion Analysis
All three outlets report the same core facts on Singh's wedding gifts and declared assets, with bhaskar.com leading on the Rs 106 crore figure while aajtak.in and prabhatkhabar.com use Rs 100.61 crore. The coverage is uniformly factual, listing assets from election affidavits without editorial slant. Bhaskar.com emphasises Singh's wife Neelam Devi holding over 60% of the wealth, while prabhatkhabar.com adds details about his horses and elephants. No outlet questions the source of wealth or links it to his political office. The balanced takeaway is that all sources rely solely on Singh's own declared affidavit data, with minor variations in how they tot up the figures. No next step is named beyond the wedding on 25 November.
