Gulf Today
|March 27, 2025
In a setback to the RJD, the Bihar Assembly on Wednesday rejected a proposal to recommend Bharat Ratna, India's highest civilian award, for Lalu Yadav.
-
The demand for awarding Bharat Ratna to Lalu Yadav has been a long-standing demand of the RJD, often raised by his loyal supporters within the party.
On Wednesday, RJD MLA Mukesh Roshan once again brought the proposal to the Assembly, urging the Bihar government to recommend Lalu Yadav's name to the Central government.
Responding to the proposal, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Vijay Kumar Chaudhary stated that the state government makes recommendations for the Bharat Ratna and Padma Awards each year, but there is currently no proposal for Lalu Yadav.
“As of now, the Bihar government does not have any proposal to recommend Bharat Ratna for Lalu Yadav,” Chaudhary said.
