Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav, wife welcome baby girl

Patna, March 27 (IANS) Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav and his wife Rajshree became proud parents of a baby girl in New Delhi on Monday.

While announcing the news on social media, Yadav shared a photograph holding the baby in his arms with a caption -- God has sent a gift in the form of a baby girl.

According to sources, the family will organise an event to welcome the newest member.

Notably, former Bihar Chief Minister and Union Railway minister Lalu Prasad's family has been facing action from central agencies for the past few weeks in connection with the land-for-job scam. Tejashwi was questioned by the Enforcement Directorate for 9 hours on Saturday. A few ago, the central agency had raided his New Friends Colony residence in New Delhi.

Since Rajshree Yadav was pregnant, she became physically uncomfortable due to the raid. The family had claimed that the ED officials had forced her to sit at one place for 15 hours despite being pregnant and having blood pressure issues. Soon after the raid, she was admitted to a hospital.
