Tej Pratap Meets Woman Whose Photo With Him Led To His Exit From Party
Patna: Tej Pratap Yadav today met Anushka Yadav, the woman whose viral photo with him led his father Lalu Prasad Yadav to snap all family and political ties with him. "We have family relations, so I have come here. No one can stop me from going anywhere. I am in contact with everyone," he said after a nearly 5-hour meeting with Ms Yadav. A photo of the two was shared on Tej Pratap's Facebook account last month, claiming they had been in a relationship for 12 years. The photo was later deleted, and the former minister of Bihar claimed his account was "hacked" and the photo was posted without his knowledge. The damage, however, was done. The next day, on May 25, Lalu Prasad expelled him from RJD for six years and also disowned him due to his "irresponsible behaviour". Soon after, several photos of Anushka Yadav and Tej Pratap started doing the rounds on social media, which also drew a response from his estranged wife, Aishwarya Rai. "Now everyone knows the truth. I want to know if everyone knew about it, then why did he marry me? Why did he ruin my life?" she said. "The 12-year secret is out now. If it was going on for so many years, then obviously, his family knew about it," she said, referring to a now-deleted social media post by Tej Pratap," she added. Tej Pratap and Aishwarya Rai - granddaughter of former Bihar Chief Minister Daroga Prasad Rai - got married in 2018. They filed for a divorce within months of their wedding, and their petition is pending before a court Ms Rai appeared before the media, in tears, and accused her in-laws of "ruining her life" by getting her married to him despite his being in a relationship with another woman since much before their wedding in 2018. A few days after his expulsion, Tej Pratap Yadav alleged that there was a "conspiracy" to drive a wedge between him and his younger brother Tejashwi Yadav. In several posts on his X handle, his blamed the crisis on 'Jaichand', a metaphor for traitors. Using a Mahabharata imagery, which he had been employing to describe his relationship with his far more successful younger brother, Mr Yadav wrote, "Those dreaming of a rift between me and Arjun, will never succeed in conspiracy. They can win over the military of Krishna, but can't capture Krishna himself. I will soon expose every such conspiracy." Without mentioning Tejashwi Yadav by name, he added, "My brother, I would ask you to have faith that I am with you in all circumstances. My blessings were with you and will be so always. Please take care of Mummy and Papa, Jaichand is outside as well as within". The 37-year-old was expelled months before the Bihar assembly polls, which the RJD will fight under the leadership of Tejashwi Yadav. He made his political debut in the 2015 assembly polls and is a second-term MLA with two brief stints in the state cabinet.

'No One Can Stop Me...': Tej Pratap Meets Anushka, Woman Seen In Viral 'Relationship' Post
Last month, a Facebook post had gone viral, showing Tej Pratap Yadav with Anushka Yadav and claiming that the duo had been in a relationship for 12 years. Over a month after a viral photo led to his expulsion from family and RJD, Lalu Yadav's son Tej Pratap on Monday met Anushka, the woman with whom he was claimed to be in a relationship for 12 years. 'We have family relations, so I have come here. No one can stop me from going anywhere. I am in contact with everyone," Tej Pratap said after holding a nearly 5-hour-long meeting with Anushka Yadav. This comes more than a month after a picture of him and her was posted on the former RJD leader's Facebook in May, claiming that the duo had been in a relationship for 12 years. As the picture went viral and created a storm in Bihar politics months ahead of the Assembly Elections, Tej Pratap later claimed that his account was hacked. However, it was too late as what followed next was a shocking move by his father Lalu, who expelled him from the party for six years and also disowned him for his 'irresponsible behaviour". He had then said that his son's public actions were 'not in line with our family's principles" and 'undermine our collective struggle for social justice". Referring to a now-deleted post by Tej Pratap, she added, 'The secret from the past 12 years is finally out. If this was going on for so long, then his family must have known about it too."

'No one can stop me': Tej Pratap meets 'partner' Anushka Yadav; defends visit post-RJD expulsion
NEW DELHI: Days after being shown the exit gate from the party for love 'confession', expelled RJD leader Tej Pratap on Monday visited his alleged partner Anushka Yadav in Patna. After coming out of Anushka's residence, Tej Pratap claimed that he shares a "parivaarik" relation with her, and no one can stop him from meeting his own family.

Earlier in May, Tej Pratap had revealed via a social media post that he had been in a relationship for the past 12 years with Anushka Yadav. The confession raised eyebrows, as he married the granddaughter of a prominent Bihar politician in 2018 and is currently involved in a legal battle over divorce. Later, RJD supremo Lalu Prasad expelled Tej Pratap, citing ignorance of moral values and irresponsible behavior. 'Ignoring moral values in personal life weakens our collective struggle for social justice. The actions, public conduct, and irresponsible behavior of my eldest son are not in accordance with our family's principles. Therefore, under these circumstances, I am removing him from the party and the family. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Memperdagangkan CFD Emas dengan salah satu spread terendah?

MNNIT develops tech to increase vehicle lifecycle
Experts from Motilal Nehru National Institute of Technology ( MNNIT ), Prayagraj, have developed a groundbreaking engine cylinder liner that promises to revolutionise the vehicle lifecycle and sustainability by reducing lubricant leakage and emissions. This innovation, achieved through protruding surface texturing technology, is expected to greatly enhance engine efficiency and reduce fuel consumption. The engine cylinder linear piston ring pairs (commonly known as CLPRs) significantly reduced friction and wear by 38% between the piston ring and the cylinder liner, compared to conventional designs. With less fuel being burned, the engine emits fewer harmful gases, thereby contributing to environmental conservation. This development holds major promise for the automobile sector, particularly for two-wheeler and four-wheeler engines, and is being hailed as a major step forward for India's automotive industry. The research carried out by assistant professor at the department of mechanical engineering of MNNIT Allahabad, Tej Pratap, and his research scholar, Govind Murari, has been published in the UK's renowned Journal of Process Mechanical Engineering. According to Pratap, the cylinder linear with different configurations of protruded textures was fabricated using a five-axis flexi fibre nanosecond pulsed laser, a high-precision device capable of micro-scale surface engineering application. "To verify its performance, the new cylinder linear underwent rigorous testing on a tribometer machine under SAE 10W-30 lubricants at the National Institute of Technology (NIT) Calicut. The tests evaluated the CLPR's performance for five different protruded textures and friction and wear parameters. All of them yielded positive results," he said. Key improvements include a reduction in oil leakage and friction at the CLPR's interface, leading to decreased emission of harmful gases. Additionally, the efficiency and durability of the CLPRs were significantly enhanced, ensuring long-term functionality under variable loadings and engine conditions. For a smooth ride Friction and wear between the piston ring and the cylinder liner were reduced by 38per cent. By reducing oil leakage and friction where the piston ring and the cylinder linear meet each other, harmful gases emitted from the vehicle were reduced Efficiency and durability of CLPRs were increased so that they work well for a long lifecycle without compromising their performance
