A time when a lot of our favourite celebrities are getting hitched, our Ministers too, are also not lagging behind. A few days back we had shared that Lalu Prasad Yadav’s eldest son, Tej Pratap might tie the nuptial bond sometime next month. But, there was not much information on the same.
However, in a hush-hush ceremony yesterday, the duo got engaged at a five-star hotel in Patna. Only about 100 close family members and friends were invited at the ceremony. See their picture below:
In the morning cartloads of fruits, sweets arrived at the Yadav’s. Reportedly, flowers have also flown in from Delhi, Kolkata, Bengaluru and Pune. (Also Read: Lalu Prasad's Daughter Wore An Orange Lehenga Studded With Swarovski Crystals For Her Wedding)
Aishwarya looked every bit of beautiful in her gloden-embroidered blue gown which she teamed with a net dupatta and Tej Pratap looked dapper in a bandhgala.
Aishwarya Rai is a history graduate from Delhi University and also holds an MBA from Amity University. She is the elder daughter of six-time MLA Chandrika Prasad Rai and granddaughter of former Bihar CM Daroga Prasad Rai. Tej Pratap, Bihar’s former health minister, is also the eldest of the 9 children of former Bihar Chief Minister, Lalu Prasad Yadav and his wife, Rabri Devi.

On Lalu Prasad’s 70th birthday in 2017, when media questioned Rabri Devi about the marriage plans of her elder son, she had shared that she was looking for ‘sanskaari’ girls for her sons. Rabri had also added that she is looking for a girl who refrains from visiting malls and theatres and that she should also be a home-maker. As expected, it aroused a mild controversy but Lalu very smartly stepped in and took to Twitter and cleared the air of confusion. He wrote on his page: “Sanskaari bahu doesn't mean veiled, home bound, dependent lady. It means strong willed, loving, caring lady, whether working women or housewife”.
Tej Pratap had recently met Aishwarya Rai at the Patna airport, in the presence of Bihar Pradesh Mahila Congress Chief Amita Bhushan when Tej was returning from New Delhi after visiting his father at AIIMS (Delhi) and Aishwarya was leaving for Delhi to complete her shopping.

The couple is likely to get married on May 12 in the state capital. Lalu Prasad, who is currently serving a jail term, was not present at the ring ceremony. However, he is expected to seek permission from the courts to allow him to attend the wedding.
