Overview
- In Bihar, RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav on June 28–29 said the Samrat Choudhary government faces a fiscal crunch and rising law-and-order failures, citing a recent ₹3,660 crore withdrawal from the state Contingency Fund and delayed payments for salaries, pensions and schemes.
- A Special Vigilance Unit (SVU) case tied to contractor Rishu Ranjan Sinha triggered suspensions of two IAS officers on May 30, followed by chargesheets and arrests of some accused, but the opposition accuses investigators of targeting lower-level figures while protecting senior 'big fish'.
- The Enforcement Directorate and state SVU continue financial and criminal probes in Bihar, and the RJD is demanding an independent judicial inquiry supervised by a sitting Supreme Court judge to broaden accountability.
- In Madhya Pradesh the Congress has amplified an Indian Express exposé alleging CM Mohan Yadav’s family benefited from large Ujjain land allotments, demanded his resignation, launched a statewide campaign and opened a portal to crowdsource alleged property information.
- Internal disagreements in the Congress surfaced when senior leader Digvijaya Singh said records showed land was allotted to a government trust, prompting AICC review and highlighting how party friction could shape the opposition’s campaign going into the monsoon and assembly sessions.
