Tej Pratap-Anushka Yadav controversy: Akash Yadav Expelled from RLJP for 6 Years

Patna: The ongoing controversy surrounding former minister Tej Pratap Yadav’s 12-year relationship with Anushka Yadav has taken a new political turn. Akash Yadav, Anushka’s brother and the National President of the Student Wing of the Rashtriya Lok Janshakti Party (RLJP), has been expelled from the party for 6 years.

A letter in this regard was issued by the RLJP confirming the action on Thursday. It stated: “In view of the current political developments, Akash Gaurav (Yadav) is expelled from the post of National President (Student Cell) in the party with immediate effect for 6 years, as per the instructions of National President Pashupati Kumar Paras.”

The controversy began on May 24, when a post from Tej Pratap Yadav’s official social media handle claimed that he had been in a relationship with Anushka Yadav for 12 years. However, Tej Pratap later claimed his account was hacked.

Despite the clarification, the post sparked a political and familial crisis. RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav took the drastic step of expelling Tej Pratap from both the party and the family for six years. (IANS)
