Aishwarya Rai, granddaughter of former Bihar CM Daroga Prasad Rai and estranged wife of Tej Pratap Yadav, has been at the center of a high-profile political and personal controversy since her 2018 marriage.
00:00That's Ashwarya Rai, Tej Pratap Yadav's estranged wife, alleging severe mistreatment and abuse by Tej Pratap and his family back in 2019.
00:21Ishwarya Rai, an MBA from Delhi University and daughter of ex-Minister Chandrika Rai, married Tej Pratap on 12 May 2018.
00:45But just months after the wedding, Ashwarya left the Yadav home, alleging she was beaten, starved and abused by Tej Pratap, his mother Rabri Devi and sister Misa Bharti.
00:54Now tell us how big a house is. What is the issue in the food? They are the lawmakers. They are breaking the basic human rights.
01:05In a court filings, she accused Tej Pratap of substance abuse and bizarre behaviour, including dressing up in women's clothing and disregarding her concerns as Ganja is Bole Baba's prasad.
01:15In November 2018, speaking to the media in Patna, Tej Pratap Yadav described his marriage to Ashwarya Rai as a mismatch and claimed he was made a political pawn despite his own reluctance and contrasting backgrounds.
01:27Despite a pleas for justice, the family remained silent until recently.
01:31After Tej Pratap posted a photo with his alleged girlfriend of 12 years, Lalu Yadav expelled him from the RGD and the family.
01:37But Ashwarya isn't convinced. She dismissed the move as pre-poll drama, calling it a strategic act to save face before elections.
01:58While Tej Pratap now claims his account was hacked, Ashwarya has vowed to continue her fight for justice, stating that blaming women is the easiest way out for powerful families.
02:07This woman is very quickly to let her mistake.
02:11This is why the woman is taking NOW to her husband's clothes, and is putting her revenge on her clothes and then not like her husband.
02:16When she steps to leave, she makes a husband under thecamp of her bedroom.
02:20The man has also taken her door, let her stay close to her husband.
02:28Speaking to her husband, when she comes to her husband's clothes, she says she says she says she says she says she has a dog.
