RJD leader Lalu Prasad’s family is at the centre of a fresh round of accusations of corruption, after his son and Bihar Environment and Forest Minister Tej Pratap has been accused of being a part of a “soil purchase scam”.

Tej Pratap reportedly awarded a 90-lakh contract to fill the earth in the Patna Zoo to a company, which will be taking soil from a mall site, where his siblings and his mother are shareholders.

But Lalu Prasad Yadav said his family’s name was being dragged deliberately into the mud over the issue.

Family’s name dragged deliberately. Zoo director sent notice to many.
