Janshakti Janata Dal (JJD) president Tej Pratap Yadav has approached the police in Patna, alleging that a conspiracy is being hatched against him and claiming that he has received death threats. The Bihar politician has also sought security protection, saying the matter poses a serious threat to his safety.
The complaint was filed at the Secretariat police station on Friday. Tej Pratap said the FIR names former RJD Student Wing president Akash Yadav, along with seven others. He alleged that repeated attempts have been made to damage his reputation and that recent developments have heightened concerns about his security.
Speaking to reporters after lodging the complaint, Tej Pratap claimed he had received a death threat through Akash Yadav and said all the names connected to the matter had been included in the FIR.
“I have reached the Secretariat police station. I was given a death threat on behalf of Akash Yadav. All names are recorded in the FIR,” he said.
The JJD leader further alleged that there was a larger conspiracy targeting both him and his father, RJD supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav, who is currently unwell.
“Efforts have been made to tarnish my image from the very beginning. My father, Lalu Prasad Yadav, is unwell, and this is a conspiracy to kill my father and me. Akash Yadav wants to get me murdered,” he alleged.
Tej Pratap also linked the alleged threat to possible political motives. He further alleged that some unidentified people had forced their way into his residence and fled before they could be stopped.
“It’s possible that he wants to get me murdered in collusion with the opposition. Four people had forcibly entered my residence. By the time we tried to catch those people, they fled,” he said.
Seeking enhanced protection, Tej Pratap said he has already approached the court and urged authorities to take immediate action.
“I demand security, and we have also filed an application in court regarding security. If we have to meet the Chief Minister, we will meet,” he added.
According to Tej Pratap, the incident involving unidentified individuals entering his residence has added to his concerns. He maintained that the complaint has been formally registered and that authorities should intervene without delay.
