Avaneesh Kumar Singh is an Indian politician from Bihar who had served as MLA from 2010 to 2015 from Chiraia. He had previously represented Dhaka in the Bihar Legislative Assembly from 2005 to 2010 and 1990 to 2000 on BJP ticket.
In 2013, despite being a BJP legislator Avaneesh Kumar Singh had opposed Narendra Modi's candidature as Prime Ministerial candidate and had supported Nitish Kumar due to which the BJP suspended him for anti-party activities.[1][2] He joined Janata Dal (United) with his supporters and was given ticket to contest to 2014 Lok Sabha election from Purvi Champaran.[3] However he came a distant third and even failed to save his deposit.
