Bihar is gearing up for the 2025 Legislative Assembly elections, and the political landscape is already buzzing with activity. With key players like Nitish Kumar seeking to retain power and the RJD, under Tejashwi Yadav, aiming to capitalize on its momentum, the stage is set for a closely contested battle. Amidst these developments, the family drama surrounding Lalu Prasad Yadav's eldest son, Tej Pratap Yadav, has added another layer of intrigue to the upcoming elections.

Tej Pratap Yadav, known for his flamboyant persona and often controversial actions, has been a figure of interest in Bihar's political scene. He has served as a Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) and held ministerial positions in the past. However, his political career has been marred by turbulence and strained relationships within his own family.

Recently, Tej Pratap found himself at the center of a social media storm after a post appeared on his Facebook account, claiming a long-term relationship with a woman named Anushka Yadav. The post, which included a photo of the two, was later deleted, with Tej Pratap alleging that his account had been hacked. However, the damage was done, leading to public scrutiny and, ultimately, his expulsion from the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) by his father, Lalu Prasad Yadav.

Following his expulsion, Tej Pratap has held rallies and hinted at forming a new political direction, potentially under the banner of "Team Tej Pratap Yadav". He has also stated that he will contest the upcoming elections based on public sentiment, leaving the door open for various possibilities. Despite the family rift, Tej Pratap has publicly expressed his support for his younger brother, Tejashwi Yadav, as the Chief Ministerial candidate.

The controversy surrounding Tej Pratap and Anushka Yadav has also had repercussions for Anushka's family. Her brother, Akash Yadav, who was the National President of the Student Wing of the Rashtriya Lok Janshakti Party (RLJP), was expelled from the party after voicing his support for Tej Pratap and criticizing the Lalu family.

Given these developments, questions arise about the potential role of Anushka Yadav in Tej Pratap's future political endeavors. While details about her background and career remain scarce, her name has become intertwined with Tej Pratap's political journey. Whether she will actively participate in his campaigns or remain behind the scenes is yet to be seen.

As Bihar prepares for the 2025 elections, several key issues are expected to take center stage. These include the revision of electoral rolls, which has sparked controversy and allegations of voter suppression. Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has also announced initiatives such as free electricity units for households, potentially influencing voter sentiment. The dynamics of alliances and the internal coherence of various political groups will also play a crucial role in determining the outcome of the elections.
