Unknown Facts About Tej Pratap Yadav

Tej Pratap Yadav is an Indian politician and the elder son of former Bihar Chief Ministers Lalu Prasad Yadav and Rabri Devi.
Born on April 16, 1988, in Gopalganj, Bihar, Tej Pratap has been a prominent figure in Bihar politics, known for his outspoken nature and controversial statements.
Tej Pratap Yadav’s political career began in 2015 when he was elected to the Bihar Legislative Assembly from the Mahua constituency. He served as the Minister of Health and Family Welfare, Minister of Environment, Forest, and Climate Change in the Bihar government. In 2020, he was re-elected to the assembly, this time from the Hasanpur constituency.
However, Tej Pratap’s political journey has been marked by controversy and family feuds. In May 2025, he was expelled from the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) for six years by his father Lalu Prasad Yadav, citing “irresponsible behavior” and “actions inconsistent with family values and party discipline”. This followed Tej Pratap’s public revelation of a 12-year relationship with a woman named Anushka.
Following his expulsion, Tej Pratap launched his own party, Janshakti Janata Dal (JJD), in August 2025. He announced his decision to contest the upcoming Bihar Assembly Elections from the Mahua seat, which he had previously represented.
Tej Pratap’s political ideology focuses on social justice, civil rights, and comprehensive change. His party’s symbol is a blackboard, and its poster features prominent leaders like Mahatma Gandhi, BR Ambedkar, and Jayaprakash Narayan.
Despite the controversies, Tej Pratap remains a popular figure in Bihar, known for his charismatic leadership and grassroots appeal. His recent meetings with BJP MP Ravi Kishan have sparked speculation about a possible alliance, but Tej Pratap has stated he’ll support anyone addressing unemployment and providing jobs.
Tej Pratap Yadav’s net worth is estimated to be around ?1.82 crore, with assets worth ?2.01 crore and liabilities of ?18.54 lakhs. He completed his matriculation from BSEB, Patna, and has been awarded a doctorate degree by Bihar Takshila University.
Tej Pratap’s campaign focuses on employment and self-respect, saying, “I would choose death over returning to RJD.” His party, JJD, has announced 21 candidates, including himself from Mahua.
The Bihar Assembly Elections 2025 are heating up, with voting in two phases on November 6 and 11, and results on November 14. Tej Pratap’s move has added an unpredictable element to the polls, with analysts watching his next steps closely.
