The most sensational and shocking news of this time is coming out from the family of Lalu Prasad Yadav, who has always been in the headlines in Bihar politics. As soon as the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) announced the names of its candidates for the Bihar Legislative Council (MLC) elections, there was a big and unexpected political explosion within the Lalu family. The long-running rumblings within the party regarding ticket distribution have now come to the surface in the form of a full-blown family feud. If seen from the point of view of a political reporter, Lalu Yadav’s most popular and active daughter Rohini Acharya has become the pivot of this entire controversy. After trying her luck from Saran seat in the Lok Sabha elections, it was expected that Rohini would be sent to the Legislative Council, but after her name was missing in the final list of RJD, Rohini’s anger burst out completely. He has shared such an emotional and sharp post on social media, which has put not only the Lalu family but the entire RJD leadership in the dock.
Rohini Acharya’s hopes shattered as soon as the list of candidates came After much brainstorming, Rashtriya Janata Dal had approved the names of its candidates for the vacant seats of Bihar Legislative Council. This time, in order to solve new caste equations, RJD strategists gave preference to some such faces, due to which Rohini Acharya’s claim was completely sidelined. If sources are to be believed, Rohini and her supporters were assuming that this time she would definitely be sent to the House in honor of her dedication towards the party and her historic decision of donating a kidney to Lalu Yadav. But as soon as the official list was released and Rohini’s name was not found in it, there was disappointment as well as fierce anger in her camp.
‘Our own people stabbed us in the back’ – Rohini Acharya’s post created a stir Just minutes after the ticket release, Rohini Acharya shared a very mysterious and poignant post on her official social media handle. He wrote in his post that sacrifice and honesty have no value in politics, when your own people start conspiring against you. He further wrote that there is no need for the crutch of any position to serve the public, but neglect by loved ones hurts the most. Although Rohini did not directly name her brother Tejashwi Yadav or mother Rabri Devi in her post, her reference was clearly towards the war of supremacy going on within the family and the decisions regarding ticket distribution. As soon as his post went viral, the market of speculations became very hot in the political circles from Patna to Delhi.
Attempt to create balance between Tejashwi Yadav and Misa Bharti also failed Political analysts say that this internal war going on in the Lalu family is not new, but this kind of dissatisfaction has come out openly on public platforms for the first time. On one hand, while Misa Bharti is representing the party in Parliament and Tejashwi Yadav is the biggest face of the opposition in Bihar, Rohini Acharya was also continuously preparing the ground to establish herself in politics. It was believed that this time Tejashwi Yadav would try to create balance within the family by giving a chance to Rohini, but due to other strong leaders within the party and caste pressure, he could not do so, the result of which is now coming out in the form of this terrible family and political discord.
BJP and JDU got the issue sitting side by side, RJD engaged in damage control This internal explosion of Lalu family has given a big issue to the opposition camp i.e. Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Janata Dal United (JDU). NDA leaders immediately issued a statement and taunted that the party which cannot do justice to its own family members and where only one brother runs the coin, how will it do the people of Bihar. On the other hand, senior leaders and spokespersons of RJD, which is facing severe embarrassment, have immediately started the damage control exercise. Party leaders say that Rohini Acharya is a highly respected and strong pillar of RJD and her resentment will soon be resolved through talks. However, this tough stance of Rohini has made it clear that in the coming days, a new and bigger storm is sure to come within this biggest political clan of Bihar.
