A grand birthday celebration for Lal Viraj Yadav, grandson of RJD supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav, has sparked political buzz ahead of the May 27 event in Delhi-NCR’s Ghaziabad. Hosted at a farmhouse linked to Ragini Yadav, the occasion is expected to bring together senior members of the Lalu family, close relatives and top RJD leaders. Sources suggest that nearly all RJD MPs, MLAs and MLCs may attend, making the event politically significant beyond a private family function. Speculation has intensified over the possible presence of Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav, owing to close family ties, though no official confirmation has been issued. Discussions are also underway regarding attendance by leaders of other political parties. Meanwhile, celebratory posters wishing Lal Viraj a happy birthday have appeared across Patna, especially near Rabri Devi’s residence, adding to the growing public and political attention.
