Internal strife has surfaced within Lalu Yadav’s family ahead of the Bihar elections, centered around Sanjay Yadav. Tej Pratap Yadav has sided with his sister, Rohini Acharya, who earlier posted criticism of Sanjay Yadav. Tej Pratap alleged that Sanjay Yadav wants to take over Tejashwi Yadav’s position, without directly naming him.
The initial point of contention was Rohini Yadav’s post regarding Sanjay Yadav sitting in the front seat during the Bihar Adhikar Yatra. She asserted that the seat was reserved for Tejashwi or Lalu Yadav. Tej Pratap has also previously referred to Sanjay Yadav as a ‘traitor,’ echoing earlier sentiments.
