The ongoing feud within Lalu Prasad Yadav's family took a dramatic turn on Tuesday when Rohini Acharya publicly challenged her brother and Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Yadav to an open debate over accusations about her kidney donation to their ailing father.
Daughter Fires Back Over Kidney Controversy
Rohini Acharya, who donated a kidney to her father Lalu Prasad Yadav during his medical treatment, issued a strong response to what she described as "filthy kidney" allegations made against her. On Tuesday, November 18, 2025, she directly called out those questioning the quality and nature of her organ donation, specifically naming her brother Sanjay Yadav among the accusers.
The confrontation represents a significant escalation in the internal family conflicts that have been brewing within the prominent political household. Rohini did not hold back in her challenge, demanding that those who had made accusations against her kidney donation should face her in an open public forum to discuss the matter.
Growing Tensions Within Political Dynasty
This public airing of family grievances comes amid what appears to be a spiraling conflict between various factions within the Yadav family. The reference to a "filthy kidney" has particularly stoked tensions, with Rohini taking strong exception to the characterization of her life-saving donation to her father.
Sanjay Yadav, who serves as a Rajya Sabha MP, finds himself at the center of this controversy as one of the individuals specifically challenged by his sister. The public nature of the challenge suggests that private attempts at reconciliation may have failed, forcing the conflict into the open.
Lalu Prasad Yadav's Response to Family Crisis
Even as this dramatic confrontation unfolded, family patriarch Lalu Prasad Yadav sought to project an image of control over the situation. The former Bihar chief minister indicated that he would "deal with" the escalating family feud, though the public challenge between his children suggests the conflicts may be beyond easy resolution.
The situation presents a significant challenge for Tejashwi Yadav, who has emerged as the political heir apparent in the family. As the public face of the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), he must navigate these turbulent family waters while maintaining the party's political standing.
This public family drama threatens to overshadow the political agenda of one of Bihar's most influential political families. The timing and nature of the conflict could have implications for the RJD's organizational unity and public perception ahead of crucial political battles.
