NEW DELHI: A week after being expelled from the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and disowned by his father Lalu Prasad Yadav, Tej Pratap Yadav on Sunday shared an emotional message on social media, addressing his parents Lalu and Rabri Devi. In the heartfelt note, he pleaded for their love and blamed political conspiracies for his ouster from both the party and the family.“My dear mom and dad… My whole world is just you two. You and any order given by you are greater than God. If you are there then I have everything. I just need your trust and love and nothing else,” Tej Pratap posted on X, formerly Twitter. “Papa, if you were not there then this party would not have been there and neither would greedy people like Jaichand who do politics with me. Just mummy papa, may you both always be healthy and happy.”The post came days after the RJD patriarch expelled his eldest son from the party for six years, accusing him of disregarding moral values and harming the family’s principles. The decision followed a controversial Facebook post by Tej Pratap in which he revealed a 12-year-long relationship with a woman named Anushka, a post he later said was the result of his account being “hacked.”“Ignoring moral values in personal life weakens our collective struggle for social justice,” Lalu had written in his own X post on May 26. “The actions, public conduct, and irresponsible behavior of my eldest son are not in accordance with our family’s principles. Therefore, under these circumstances, I am removing him from the party and the family.”Lalu added that while his son is “capable of judging what is right or wrong in his personal life,” those choosing to associate with him should do so at their own discretion.Reacting to the development, Tejashwi Yadav, Tej Pratap’s younger brother and RJD’s key face in Bihar, stated that the party maintains a clear boundary between personal and political conduct. “We cannot tolerate such things. If it’s about my big brother, political life and personal life are different. He has the right to make his personal decisions,” he told the media.The family dispute reignited public attention on Tej Pratap’s past, including his failed marriage with Aishwarya Rai, granddaughter of former Bihar chief minister Daroga Rai. Aishwarya had parted ways within months of their wedding, citing mistreatment by Tej Pratap and his family.
