Bihar: Is Tej Pratap now trying to mend his relationship with family, what transpired during mother Rabri Devi birthday celebration?
Tej Pratap Yadav: The Lalu family is always a topic of discussion in Bihar politics. This time, the reason was former Chief Minister Rabri Devi's birthday. Her eldest son, Tej Pratap Yadav, went to meet his mother on Thursday. It is being said that Tej Pratap and Rabri Devi met after a very long time. While this meeting has brought new warmth to family relations, its political message is also clearly understood.
On his mother Rabri Devi's birthday, Tej Pratap Yadav shared a rare family photo from his childhood. In this old picture, all nine of Lalu Yadav's children are seen together. Tej Pratap, about 6-7 years old, is standing next to his father wearing a tie, while the younger Tejashwi Yadav (about 4-5 years old) has his hands on his elder sister Misa Bharti's shoulders. In another photo, Rabri Devi is seen cutting a cake with Tej Pratap.
You are my biggest inspiration: Tej Pratap
Tej Pratap Yadav also wrote an emotional caption with these photos. "Happy Birthday, Mom, you are the soul of our family. Behind every laugh, every prayer, every moment that feels like home, it's all because of you. This life full of warmth and love that we live, it's all because of you."
Tej Pratap further wrote, “You took charge when we didn't even know what taking charge meant. You are my biggest inspiration. You gave without counting the cost, loved unconditionally, and remained strong even when no one saw how difficult it was. They say that when God cannot be everywhere, He sends a mother. And we are all very fortunate because we have you.”
A sign of new political activity
As soon as this post went viral, it became a topic of discussion in the political circles of Bihar. This is because there have been reports of distance between Tej Pratap Yadav and his family for the past few months. In this context, this meeting is being seen as a sign of new political activity within the Lalu family and the RJD camp.
