This Lalu Yadav, known for contesting elections from ward councilor to the President's post, has decided to re-enter the political arena.
However, this Lalu Yadav is not Rohini's father; he is another individual with the same name. Meet Lalu Prasad Yadav, a resident of the Marhaura assembly constituency in the Saran Lok Sabha constituency. He is best known for sharing his name with the prominent political figure Lalu Prasad Yadav. Since 2001, he has been contesting elections, ranging from village ward to MLA, MLC, and MP.
