Former Bihar Chief Minister and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) patriarch Lalu Prasad Yadav’s daughter Rohini Acharya on Saturday said she has decided to “quit” politics and is “disowning” her family, a day after the party suffered a massive defeat in the assembly polls, securing only 25 seats in the 243-member state assembly, news agency ANI reported.
Taking all the blame for the outcome, Acharya targeted RJD Member of Parliament (MP) and her brother Tejashwi’s close aide Sanjay Yadav.
