Ashok Mahto And Singh Rivalry

The rivalry between the 2, Mahto and gangster Akhilesh Singh affected more than 100 villages in the Nawada, Nalanda and the Sheikhpura districts of Bihar. Between 1998 and 2006, the rivalry which claimed over 200 lives in Nawada district took place from the caste conflict between Bhumihars and Kurmis. The clash and rivalry between the 2 strong groups would decide power over stone-crushing and sand-lifting arrangements in the affected districts.

Later in 2003, the Mahto gang allegedly killed the father of a Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) Aruna Devi โ€“ the wife of Akhilesh Singh โ€“ and 5 others, including just a 6 year old boy. It was reported the killings were in retaliation for the deaths of 7 laborers who were killed by the Akhilesh Singh gang. In 2000 they did an attack in the same MLA’s house and killed more than 10 people.

The Mahto-Singh rivalry was between 2 gangs for supremacy but a mobilization of the castes in support of each of these two gangs also took place. During the elections of 2005, Aruna Devi who is the wife of Akhilesh Singh, was a Lok Janshakti Party candidate for the region’s legislative assembly. As one of her supporters, the charges of murder and abduction upon Akhilesh Singh were frivolous and he had taken up arms to fight for the honor of his community which were the Bhumihars.
