After Anandpal got married in 1992 he wanted to become a government servant and later started his cement agency business and a milk dairy.{{cite news |url=http://www.hindustantimes.com/jaipur/why-rajputs-in-rajasthan-are-uniting-over-gangster-anandpal-s-encounter-killing/story-Tq14igKDQ7PgPbTF1ldVrL.html |title=Why Rajputs in Rajasthan have erupted in anger over gangster Anandpal's encounter killing |author=Salik Ahmed |date=13 July 2017 |newspaper=HindustanTimes |access-date=14 July 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170714120356/http://www.hindustantimes.com/jaipur/why-rajputs-in-rajasthan-are-uniting-over-gangster-anandpal-s-encounter-killing/story-Tq14igKDQ7PgPbTF1ldVrL.html |archive-date=14 July 2017 |url-status=live }}

Anandpal's political ambitions began to take shape in 1999–2000 when he fought the election for Panchayat Samiti member of Sanvrad village. He won and later fought the election of Pradhan of Ladnu Panchayat Samiti. He was defeated by a margin of two votes by Jagnath Burdak, the son of former cabinet minister Harajiram Burdak.

In November 2000, the election for Ladnu Panchayat Samiti committees took place. Singh and a senior Congress leader at that time came in direct conflict. A police case was lodged against Singh for disrupting government work when he did not let a contender file nomination papers. Supporters of Singh alleged that this happened under pressure from senior police officers and politicians. He was indicted for threatening, extortion and violence to make the case non-bailable.

Anandpal was fond of AK-47 rifles.{{Cite news|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/jaipur/Two-notorious-fugitives-arrested-AK-47-rifles-seized/articleshow/17236200.cms|title=Two notorious fugitives arrested; AK-47, rifles seized – Times of India|work=The Times of India|access-date=11 July 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171222074853/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/jaipur/Two-notorious-fugitives-arrested-AK-47-rifles-seized/articleshow/17236200.cms|archive-date=22 December 2017|url-status=live}} When he was arrested at a farm house near Jaipur in 2012, he was found in possession of an AK-47, bullet-proof vests and bullets.{{Cite news|url=http://www.financialexpress.com/india-news/gangster-anand-pal-singh-a-man-who-is-making-news-even-after-his-death/742325/|title=Gangster Anand Pal Singh: A man who is making news even after his death|date=30 June 2017|work=The Financial Express|access-date=12 July 2017|language=en-US|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170720233623/http://www.financialexpress.com/india-news/gangster-anand-pal-singh-a-man-who-is-making-news-even-after-his-death/742325/|archive-date=20 July 2017|url-status=live}} He allegedly used an AK-47 to fire on policemen at this encounter.

Rajasthan police spent crores of rupees on resources for catching the criminal.{{Cite news|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/jaipur/Think-tank-sharp-shooter-of-Anand-Pal-Singhs-gang-arrested-by-ATS/articleshow/53587104.cms|title=Think tank, sharp shooter of Anand Pal Singh's gang arrested by ATS – Times of India|work=The Times of India|access-date=11 July 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170412020552/http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/jaipur/Think-tank-sharp-shooter-of-Anand-Pal-Singhs-gang-arrested-by-ATS/articleshow/53587104.cms|archive-date=12 April 2017|url-status=live}}

After escaping from police custody, Anandpal was accused of killing a policeman when a police team tried to stop his vehicle in Gudha Bhagwandas.

The Rajasthan police stated that Singh and his brothers amassed wealth after entering the world of crime. "Anandpal’s brother Manjeet Singh was in prison in a murder case since 2001. He himself and another brother Vikki had been on the run from the law. There are no known source of income for the family, but Anandpal’s daughter spent nearly Rs. 20 lakh on engineering studies in Dubai," said the statement. The statement further said that Anandpal's other daughter was studying at an expensive school in Pune as was his son. "There are two flats owned by the family in Jaipur’s posh colonies. Each one of them is valued more than Rs 60 lakh. The police confiscated nearly 370 bigha of land," said the statement adding that he owned properties in Kuchaman, Jaipur, Hanumangarh, Sikar and Churu. The family also owns a mine in Makarana, apart from several 'benami' properties.

Anandpal was considered unique in his status as a criminal in Rajasthan whose aides would often engage in acts of self-sacrifice. In a gang-war in Bikaner Central Jail in July 2014, his close aide Balveer Banuda jumped in front of bullets when Anandpal's enemies tried to shoot him.{{Cite web|url=http://www.patrika.com/news/miscellenous-india/gangster-anandpal-encountered-by-rajasthan-police-1608482/|title=2006 में गोदारा हत्याकांड से चर्चा में आया था गैंगस्टर आनंदपाल – Gangster anandpal encountered by rajasthan police|website=www.patrika.com|language=en|access-date=11 July 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170630095359/http://www.patrika.com/news/miscellenous-india/gangster-anandpal-encountered-by-rajasthan-police-1608482/|archive-date=30 June 2017|url-status=live}}

Anandpal's lawyer A.P. Singh also wrote to the Chief Justice, stating that the court should conduct a fair investigation under the direction of a judge because Anandpal had not committed any crime. He added that Anandpal ran away because his companion Balveer Banuda was killed inside the jail by his enemy Raju Theth. If he had not escaped then he too would have been killed as he was not safe inside the jail. His lawyer alleged that if any lawyer in Rajasthan wants to represent Anandpal, the police overwhelm him in false cases.
