TEJASHWI'S 'MAN FRIDAY' IN CENTRE OF LALU FAMILY RIFT
The New Indian Express Tirupati
|November 18, 2025
SANJAY Yadav, 41, has long been a surging presence in the RJD. In recent weeks, his name has surfaced at the centre of the turbulence in the 'first family' of the party's founder and former CM, Lalu Prasad. Matters came to a head on Saturday, when Lalu's daughter Rohini Acharya publicly quit politics and severed ties with the household, blaming Sanjay.
A postgraduate in computer science from Mahendragarh, Haryana, Sanjay worked as a software engineer in Delhi before meeting Tejashwi in 2012. Former Union minister Ram Kripal Yadav says his son Abhimanyu introduced them. Ram Kripal, then in the RJD, was known as 'Lalu's Hanuman'.
