Tej Pratap Yadav's Political Move: Unfollows Tejashwi and Announces Candidates for bihar Elections


Tej Pratap Yadav's Growing Distance from Family


Tej Pratap Yadav, former minister and elder son of Lalu Yadav, has unfollowed his younger brother, Tejashwi Yadav, on social media. This marks a significant shift in their relationship. Currently, Tej Pratap follows only five people on social media, including his father Lalu Yadav, mother Rabri Devi, and sister Raj Laxmi Yadav. He previously unfollowed his elder sisters, Misa Yadav and hema Yadav.


Political Tensions with Tejashwi Yadav


Tej Pratap's unfollowing spree comes amid rising tensions with his younger brother. Political analysts suggest that Tej Pratap has been distancing himself from the family and the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) after being expelled by Lalu Yadav. Recent statements from Tej Pratap show his increasing frustration with the party and his younger brother’s leadership.

Tej Pratap's Political Shift


Following his expulsion from the RJD, Tej Pratap founded his own party, the Janshakti Janata Dal (JJD). He has made it clear that he plans to contest from the Mahua assembly constituency, the same seat he won in the 2015 elections as an RJD candidate.


Candidate Announcements


 Tej Pratap Yadav is set to announce his party's candidates on october 13. He has already announced prem Kumar as the JJD candidate for the Wazirganj assembly seat in Gaya.


Campaign Style


 In a public rally, Tej Pratap mimicked his father Lalu Yadav’s style, urging the youth to be cautious in their protests and asking prem Kumar to fold his hands in respect on stage.


Future of JJD in bihar Elections


Tej Pratap’s move to field candidates and challenge the RJD suggests a new political path for him, marking a clear separation from his family’s political legacy. The outcome of his candidacy in Mahua and other constituencies will be closely watched in the upcoming bihar assembly elections.
