“Lovely Anand”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

Lovely Anand is an Indian politician and former member of the 10th Lok Sabha, the lower house of the Parliament of India.

As the debutant candidate for the new Bihar People's Party established by her husband, Anand Mohan Singh, Lovely Anand had defeated a heavyweight parliamentarian Kishori Sinha, the wife of former Bihar Chief Minister Satyendra Narayan Sinha, in a 1994 Lok Sabha by-election in the north Bihar constituency of Vaishali.^[1] She lost the seat in the 1996 elections^[2] and failed to re-win it in those of 1999.^[3]

Anand has also twice been elected as a Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) of Bihar, winning once in Barh and again in Nabinagar.^[4]{{deadlink|date=January 2019}}

Her husband, Anand Mohan Singh, whom she had married in 1991,^[5] and who had engineered her 1996 by-election success,^[2] is serving a life sentence for abetting murder.^[6] He had briefly been the MP for Sheohar, around 1998, and his wife stood as a Samajwadi Party candidate there in the 2014 general election. She claimed that she had switched party allegiance because the Indian National Congress (INC) had "neglected" her^[2] after she had unsuccessfully stood as their candidate in that constituency in the 2009 national election^[7]{{efn|According to Arun Sinha, Lovely Anand was one of several wives of convicted criminals who were put forward for election by their husbands as a proxy in 2009 when courts rejected most of the husbands' appeals to stand in their own right. They were following a model adopted by Lalu Prasad Yadav and his wife, Rabri Devi, but "got the greatest shock of their life when voters rejected their dummies".^[8] She finished in fourth place with 81,479 votes.^[9]}} and in the Alamnagar constituency at the 2010 Bihar Assembly elections.^[10]

Anand has continued to protest the innocence of her husband, standing for election on that basis^[2]^[7] and claiming that her husband is the victim of a political conspiracy and has never been a criminal or gang leader.^[12] She and some others had been found guilty in the same case as that of her husband, which was determined in 2007 when she was a member of the JDU party, but she later obtained bail^[13] and was acquitted on appeal to the High Court.^[14]{{efn|Anand was a member of Janata Dal (United) between 2005-2007.^[15]}}

Anand, who says she has a BA degree from Ranchi University, has officially declared various birth dates. She has claimed to be aged 35 at the time of both the 1994 and 2009 elections. If the latter of those is correct, she was elected illegally in 1994 as the minimum age for candidacy was 25.^[7] She and her husband have a son and a daughter; her son, Chetan Anand, has also expressed a desire to be elected.^[16]
