Patna, November 25: In a significant reshuffle of official residences in Bihar, the Building Construction Department has ordered former minister Tej Pratap Yadav to vacate his government-allotted bungalow at 26 M Strand Road. The residence has now been allotted to the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes Welfare Minister Lakhendra Kumar Roshan.
The development comes on the same day that an eviction order was issued for former Chief Minister Rabri Devi’s residence at 10 Circular Road, adding to speculation about Tej Pratap’s next move, as he is already away from his mother’s home.

Tej Pratap Yadav, elder son of RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav, has faced a series of setbacks in recent months. His strained ties with the RJD leadership became public after a controversy erupted over a personal photograph that went viral on social media. Though Tej Pratap claimed his account was hacked, Lalu Prasad expelled him from the party and family for six years.
Following the fallout, Tej Pratap launched his own political outfit, the Janshakti Janata Dal, and contested the Mahua seat in the Assembly elections. However, his party failed to secure any victories, marking a major political setback.
