Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav on Sunday expelled his elder son Tej Pratap Yadav from both his family and the party over a serious breach of moral and social values.Lalu said that his son’s activities, public conduct and behaviour were not in line with family traditions and values.
Lalu Yadav stated that disregarding ethical values in personal life weakens the collective struggle for social justice. In a post on X he said, “The activities, public behaviour, and irresponsible conduct of my eldest son are not in line with our family’s values and cultural ethos. Ignoring moral values in personal life weakens our collective struggle for social justice. The activities, public conduct and irresponsible behaviour of the eldest son are not in accordance with our family values and traditions.”
“Therefore, due to the above circumstances, I remove him from the party and family. From now on, he will not have any role of any kind in the party and family. He is expelled from the party for six years. He is capable of seeing the good and bad and merits and demerits of his personal life,” the veteran leader said.
निजी जीवन में नैतिक मूल्यों की अवहेलना करना हमारे सामाजिक न्याय के लिए सामूहिक संघर्ष को कमज़ोर करता है। ज्येष्ठ पुत्र की गतिविधि, लोक आचरण तथा गैर जिम्मेदाराना व्यवहार हमारे पारिवारिक मूल्यों और संस्कारों के अनुरूप नहीं है। अतएव उपरोक्त परिस्थितियों के चलते उसे पार्टी और परिवार…

Yadav further clarified that while his son is capable of making personal decisions regarding his own life, anyone choosing to associate with him must do so at their own discretion. “All those who will have relations with him should take their own decisions. I have always been an advocate of public shame in public life. The obedient members of the family have adopted and followed this idea in public life. Thank you,” he said.
Speaking about the issue Tej Pratap’s younger brother and former Deputy CM of Tejashwi Yadav said, “We cannot tolerate such things, we are working and are dedicated to the people of Bihar. If it’s about my big brother, political life and personal life are different. He has the right to make his personal decisions. He is an adult and free to make decisions. Our party’s chief has made it clear, and ever since he has said so, it is his feelings. We didn’t question such things… What he is doing in his personal life, nobody asks before doing anything. I have come to know about it via the media only.”
A controversy broke out on Saturday after former Bihar Minister Tej Pratap Yadav claimed that his Facebook account was hacked, following a post that claimed he was in a long-term relationship with a woman. The post prompted netizens to recall his marital dispute that made headlines a few years ago. On Saturday, Tej Pratap Yadav took to X to claim that his social media accounts were compromised and his photos had been maliciously edited.
