Tej Pratap Yadav reveals 12-year relationship likely to marry soon.
Patna, May 24, 2025: Tej Pratap Yadav, former Bihar Minister of Environment, Forest and Climate Change and elder son of RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav is once again in the headlines this time for a personal revelation.
Tej Pratap Yadav has publicly acknowledged his long-standing relationship with Anushka Yadav, confirming that the two have been together for 12 years and is likely to marry soon.
In a heartfelt post shared on his official Facebook account on Saturday. Tej Pratap wrote; “I am Tej Pratap Yadav, and the girl who is seen with me in this picture is Anushka Yadav. We have known each other for the last 12 years and love each other deeply. We have been in a relationship throughout this time. I wanted to share this with you all for a long time but couldn’t find the right way. Today, through this post, I am opening up my heart to you. I hope you will understand.”
The announcement has sparked wide interest in political and public circles, as speculation grows around an official wedding in the near future.
Tej Pratap Yadav has an earlier marriage with Aishwarya Rai:
This is not Tej Pratap’s first publicized relationship. In May 2018, he married Aishwarya Rai, daughter of former Bihar Minister Chandrika Rai, in what was a grand and politically significant wedding.
Organized by Lalu Prasad and Rabri Devi, the ceremony drew the attendance of several national political leaders and was seen as a high-profile alliance between two powerful political families.
However, the marriage quickly soured. Just months later, Tej Pratap Yadav filed for divorce in Patna’s Family Court, citing incompatibility. The sudden move shocked the political fraternity and drew widespread media coverage.
He openly stated that he did not wish to continue living with Aishwarya, which eventually led to the legal dissolution of the marriage.
The divorce episode not only impacted Tej Pratap’s personal life but also drew considerable attention and criticism towards the Lalu-Rabri family, causing them political and public embarrassment.
New beginnings:
Now, with his public admission of a long-term relationship with Anushka Yadav, it appears that Tej Pratap is ready to begin a new chapter in his life.
Sources close to the family suggest that preparations for marriage may be underway, although no official statement has been made regarding the wedding date.
Given his political stature and family legacy, any future marriage ceremony is expected to be closely watched by both political observers and the public.
