Lalu Prasad on three-day parole to attend son's wedding
Ranchi, May 10 (IBNS) : Rashtriya Janata Dal chief Lalu Prasad Yadav on Thursday got three-days parole to attend his elder son Tej Pratap Yadav’s marriage in Patna, reports said.
Lalu Prasad may reach Patna late on Thursday evening.
The former Chief Minister, convicted and jailed in multiple fodder scam cases, had initially applied for five-days parole. He has been undergoing treatment at RIMS hospital in Ranchi, where he was admitted after complaining illness in Birsa Munda Central jail of Ranchi.
His elder son Tej Pratap Yadav, an MLA and and former state minister, will tie nuptial knots with Aishwarya Rai, daughter of party legislator Chandrika Rai and grand daughter of former Chief Minister Daroga Prasad Rai, on May 12 at Patna's veterinary college ground.
The engagement was held at a hotel in Patna on April 18 but Lalu Prasad was conspicuous by his absence in the ceremony. Later, an emotional Tej Pratap posted “Miss you Papa” on his Twitter account.
Last week, the medical board of Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS) in Ranchi, where Prasad is admitted on health ground, had declared him as stable for granting parole to him. “Mr. Prasad’s health bulletin says everything is normal...he is stable and healthy,” RIMS superintendent R.K. Shrivastva had said.
