Speaking to reporters at his residence, Rambabu Singh said his daughter’s decision to contest the Bihar elections was final even though the constituency and party affiliation were yet to be decided.
“Jyoti Singh will contest the assembly elections in Bihar. From which seat and under which party banner, or as an independent candidate, will be decided soon,” he said. There is strong public demand for her to contest from the Karakat seat (in Rohtas district), he added.
“The people of Karakat developed a close bond with Joyti when she campaigned for Pawan Singh in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections,” Rambabu said.
The 243-member Bihar Assembly will go to polls in two phases on November 6 and 11. The counting of votes will begin on November 14.
However, the announcement came at a time when a marital dispute was brewing within the family, with Rambabu accusing Pawan Singh of “cruelty” and “dishonesty”, alleging that the actor-singer had refused all reconciliation efforts to continue his marriage to Jyoti.

“I folded my hands and begged him to accept my daughter, but he just pointed to the court. Until the divorce is legally finalized, Jyoti has every right to live with her husband,” Rambabu said.
Pawan Singh reportedly told Rambabu during their last meeting three months ago that the matter would now be resolved in court.
Meanwhile, speculations have intensified in political circles after Jyoti recently met Jan Suraj party chief and poll strategist Prashant Kishor, triggering discussions on a possible political alignment.
The Jan Suraaj Party has taken the lead in announcing candidates for 51 seats in the Bihar elections.
While official confirmation of her candidacy or party affiliation is still awaited, political observers see Jyoti’s potential entry as a high-profile addition to Bihar’s electoral landscape, given her ties to one of the biggest stars of Bhojpuri cinema.
