‘Abuses hurled, slipper raised’: Lalu Yadav family feud intensifies; Rohini Acharya alleges insult over kidney transplant

'Abuses hurled, slipper raised': Lalu Yadav family feud intensifies; Rohini Acharya alleges insult over kidney transplant

NEW DELHI: Lalu Prasad Yadav’s daughter, Rohini Acharya, who announced her separation from both her family and the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) on Saturday, has now levelled fresh and explosive allegations against her brother and party leader Tejashwi Yadav. Just a day after declaring she was distancing herself, Rohini accused Tejashwi of humiliating and abusing her, claiming that matters escalated to the point where “a slipper was raised to hit her.” Taking to X, Rohini wrote an emotional post, stating she was forced to leave behind her aged parents, Lalu Prasad Yadav and Rabri Devi – in tears while protecting her dignity. She posted writing in Hindi, which translates to: “Yesterday, a daughter, a sister, a married woman, a mother was humiliated, filthy abuses were hurled at her, a slipper was raised to hit her. I did not compromise on my self-respect, I did not surrender the truth, and solely because of this, I had to endure this insult. Yesterday, a daughter, out of compulsion, left behind her crying parents and sisters and came away; they tore me away from my maternal home. They left me orphaned. May none of you ever walk my path, may no family ever have a daughter-sister like Rohini.”In a second post, Rohini referred to her kidney donation to her father in 2022 while alleging that personal and offensive remarks were made about it. She wrote that she was taunted for having “put a filthy kidney” into her father and accused of having “taken millions of rupees and bought a ticket” for the transplant. She further posted, “If there’s a son or brother in your parents’ home, then… tell your brother to get a kidney transplant from himself or his Haryanvi mates instead.” Rohini also wrote, “All you sisters and daughters, look after your own home and family… without a thought for your parents… with me, it was a massive sin to not look after my family or my three children, to not get permission from my husband or my in-laws before donating… which today has been branded as filthy.”A day earlier, Rohini had already shocked RJD supporters by alleging, “I have no family. You can go and ask this to Sanjay Yadav, Rameez, and Tejashwi Yadav. They are the ones who threw me out of the family.”This public fallout comes right after the RJD’s historic electoral collapse, where the Tejashwi-led party in this election secured only 25 out of 143 seats, losing over 100 seats.This is not the first fracture within the family. Months ago, Lalu expelled his elder son Tej Pratap Yadav from the party. Tej Pratap went on to launch his own party, Janshakti Janata Dal (JJD), contesting from Mahua, only to lose by a massive margin, with his party failing to make a mark. Go to Source
