Lalu's son Tej Pratap files divorce petition

Patna: RJD chief Lalu Prasad's elder son Tej Pratap Yadav on Friday filed a petition before a court here seeking divorce from his wife of six months, sources in the civil court said.

According to the sources, Tej Pratap had approached the court with a divorce petition a few days ago which was turned down due to technical reasons following which he moved a fresh application on Friday which has been forwarded by the filing section for necessary action. No member of the family was, however, available for comments. Journalists and cameramen made a beeline outside the 10, Circular Road residence of Tej Pratap's mother and former CM Rabri Devi where Aishwarya Rai along with her father Chandrika Rai visited in the evening while refusing to take questions. They were later joined by RS member Misa Bharti, the eldest daughter of Lalu.
