At Mahendra Singhs ancestral village Khambhra, his bust was garlanded and the whole village gathered to pledge their support for the farmers movement.

At Ranchi, a memorial meeting was held at Albert Ekka chowk, where the gathering pledged support for the ongoing farmers movement. This gathering was addressed by CPIML Central Committee member Shubhendu Sen, social activists Aloka Kujur and Raju Mahto, MCC leader Sushanto Mukherjee, CPIML District Secretary Bhuneshwar Kewat, and CPI District Secretary Ajay Singh.
CPIML paid tributes at the Patna State office and across Bihar to Comrade Mahendra Singh. Among the large number of people who attended the memorial meeting in Patna were CPIML State Secretary Kunal, AIPWA General Secretary Meena Tiwari, State Secretary Shashi Yadav, State President Saroj Chaube, Umesh Singh, Prakash Kumar, Sangeeta Sinha, Rita Baranwal, Sant Lal and others.
Addressing the memorial meeting, State Secretary Kunal said that Mahendra Singh was a people's leader and the epitome of a true people's representative. Fearful of his popularity, BJP-protected criminals brutally murdered him on this day in 2005. His voice was the fearless voice of the revolutionary opposition inside the Assembly. He made the voice of the poor, the oppressed and the marginalized everywhere, from the Assembly to the streets. He was an ideal people's representative, an inspiration for the Communist movement, and an intrepid warrior for the 'jal-jangal-jameen' rights of the people.
