He won for the first time from this constituency in the 2014, when the bypolls were conducted in Hajipur.

In the 2020 Bihar Legislative Assembly elections, he was elected as MLA once again. He defeated Dev Kumar Chaurasiya of Rashtriya Janata Dal, the runner-up candidate.[6]

He once stated while addressing a conference that in 1998-99, when Mamta Banerjee was the railway minister in Government of India, she decided to shift the Zonal Headquarter of East Central Railway from Hajipur to Kolkata and he was one of the agitator who protested against this decision. He also claimed that on the direction of Nityanand Rai he destroyed a 3 Km long railway track in protest.[7]
Singh also participates in annual Mahashivratri road show along with Nityanand Rai, in which Rai acts as the charioteer of Lord Shiva and Singh acts as his assistant. The road show starts each year from Pataleshwar Nath temple and ends at Akshaywat Rai stadium.[8][9]
