Mumbai/Pune, May 27, 2025 : In a dramatic turn of events, RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav has disowned his son Tej Pratap Yadav, removing him from the party and declaring that the family would no longer maintain any ties with him. The development comes shortly after Tej Pratap’s startling revelation on social media, where he claimed to have been in a relationship with a woman for the past 12 years. Although the post was later deleted, with Tej Pratap alleging that his Facebook account was hacked, the damage had already been done.
Tej Pratap Yadav, who is a two-time MLA and had been minister in Bihar, is become isolated from both his family and his political party just as the Bihar Vidhan Sabha elections approach. The move by Lalu Prasad Yadav underscores the seriousness of the allegations and the impact they may have had on the party’s image and electoral prospects. The incident has added a new layer of intrigue and speculation in Bihar’s political landscape as campaigning gains momentum.
