Political career

edit

He became MLA twice from RJD in 2005. Before him, CPI-ML's Rajaram Singh was MLA from Obra assembly constituency for ten years. RJD's base voters were feeling a void. Veteran Ram Bilas Singh lost in 1995 and Ramnaresh Singh lost in 2000. RJD needed a clean and acceptable face to the whole society. When Satyanarayan Singh came, being of a business character, he successfully prevented the polarization of votes in favor of CPI-ML against his party. As a result, in February 2005, he successfully defeated Rajaram by 3875 votes by getting 38575 votes. But the government was not formed and the bugle for mid-term elections was sounded. Elections were held again in October 2005. A new candidate from JDU was Pramod Singh Chandravanshi. He again faced Rajaram and won by 8595 votes, securing 32618 votes. In 2014 Loksabha election he was fighting as an independent candidate from the Karakat Loksabha constituency but washed off badly in the Modi wave. In the 2019 Bihar By-election he was selected as the NDA candidate from 212 Dehri constituency and won the election with one of the biggest margins in the history of the Dehri constituency, he defeated Mohammad Firoz Husain of Rashtriya Janata Dal by a margin of 33,971 votes. Satyanarayan Singh got 71,845 votes, while Husain got 37,874 votes. In the 2020 Bihar election again he got selected as the NDA candidate from the same constituency, but he failed to secure the seat and lost the election with a minor margin of 450 votes.
