Loneliness of Tej Pratap Yadav: RJD first family to tottering outfit to reality show
Tej Pratap Yadav, once a prominent figure in the RJD, has been struggling to regain his political prominence since his expulsion from the party in May 2025 and a subsequent loss in the state Assembly elections. Despite efforts to stay busy with social media, a reality TV show, and launching his own party, Janshakti Janata Dal (JJD), his political standing has significantly declined.
After being expelled from the RJD due to a social media post about a relationship, Tej Pratap formed JJD just before the November 2025 Assembly polls, but the party failed to field any candidates and Tej Pratap himself finished third in his constituency. Since then, he has attempted to regain influence by connecting with other political figures and parties, but has faced limited success.
His political fortunes may only improve if the RJD rebounds and his brother Tejashwi reconciles with him. Despite his political setbacks, Tej Pratap remains in the media spotlight and continues to express opinions on Bihar politics and national issues.
