Lalu Prasad Yadav’s daughter-in-law to contest in 2019 Lok Sabha elections

Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tej Pratap Yadav’s wife Aishwarya Rai may contest in 2019 Lok Sabha elections for the party from Chhapra in Bihar. However, a decision in this regard is yet to be taken by the family of RJD supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav.

According to RJD leader Rahul Tiwari, people of the state want Aishwarya to contest the elections and a final decision would be taken by the Yadav family. Terming Aishwarya as “Chhapra’s daughter”, he said that she would certainly fight the elections and win if RJD supremo wishes so.

Even before any official confirmation about Aishwarya’s candidature, the ruling Janata Dal-United has taken a dig at the RJD saying workers in the party are there merely to play the drums and party tickets for elections would be given only to members of Lalu’s family.

JDU leader Neeraj Kumar said, “RJD workers are there in party merely for playing the drums. Only members of Lalu’s family will get the chance to contest in elections. Lalu family can never rise above dynasty politics and corruption.”

Tej Pratap and Aishwarya Rai, granddaughter of former Bihar chief minister Daroga Prasad Rai, got married at a grand ceremony in Patna on May 12.
