RJD MP Sudhakar Singh alleged that IPS officer Kundan Krishnan gave a wrong valuation of land and was involved in transaction irregularities, leading the officer to serve a defamation notice.
Bihar's political arena saw a fresh controversy when RJD Member of Parliament Sudhakar Singh publicly accused IPS officer Kundan Krishnan of providing an incorrect valuation for a piece of land and of being part of irregularities in the related transaction. Singh made the allegations during a press conference held in Patna, stating that the officer's statements had distorted the true market price and raised questions about the legality of the deal.
In response, Kundan Krishnan issued a formal notice of defamation against the MP, asserting that the claims were baseless and damaging to his reputation. The notice, filed under the Indian Penal Code, signals a potential legal confrontation between the elected representative and the senior police official.
The exchange has drawn attention from local political observers, who note that such disputes between legislators and law‑enforcement officers are rare but can intensify existing tensions in the state. Both parties have so far refrained from further comment, leaving the matter to be resolved through legal channels.
The incident underscores the heightened scrutiny of land‑related transactions in Bihar, a state where land disputes frequently intersect with politics and administration.
