In a shocking turn of events, Rohini Acharya announced that she is quitting politics and severing all ties with her family, just a day after the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) suffered a major defeat in the Bihar assembly elections. Her post went viral immediately, drawing intense political and public reaction.
Rohini Acharya Says She Was “Asked To Quit Politics”
On Saturday, Rohini Acharya took to X (formerly Twitter) to declare that she was stepping away from politics entirely. She wrote that she was “disowning” her family and “taking all the blame,” adding that she made this decision based on the advice of Sanjay Yadav and Rameez.
Her announcement came hours after the RJD-led Mahagathbandhan saw a devastating loss, with the party securing only 25 seats. Social media quickly filled with speculations, criticism, and concern over the internal turmoil within the Yadav family.
Tensions Rise Within The Yadav Family
The decision by Rohini Acharya followed yet another major controversy within the political household. A day earlier, RJD supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav expelled his elder son Tej Pratap Yadav from the party after he made a critical social media post.
Tej Pratap later launched his own political outfit, “Team Tej Pratap Yadav,” which eventually became the Janshakti Janata Dal (JJD). He even fielded a candidate against his brother, Tejashwi Yadav, from Raghopur. However, the new party failed to make any impact and drew a complete blank across Bihar. Tej Pratap himself lost from the Mahua seat, a constituency he had previously won in 2015.
Family Drama Deepens After Election Rout
The political setbacks combined with internal disagreements appear to have pushed Rohini Acharya toward her drastic announcement. Her message suggested deep emotional distress, and many supporters urged her to reconsider.
