Tej Pratap Yadav Makes Fresh Allegations Against Former PA Motilal Rai, Says He Is Now Demanding Money; Warns People to Stay Cautious
Patna: Jan Shakti Janata Dal (JJD) chief and former Bihar minister Tej Pratap Yadav has made a fresh social media post regarding his former personal assistant (PA), Motilal Rai. In his post on X, Tej Pratap alleged that Motilal Rai is now demanding money from people. He also warned the public to remain cautious and not provide money or other items to him based on such requests.
The latest post has once again brought the dispute between Tej Pratap Yadav and his former aide into the spotlight. The two have been involved in a public dispute for some time. Earlier, Tej Pratap had approached the police with allegations that cash and other valuables were missing from his residence. Motilal Rai was named in connection with the complaint.
According to reports, Tej Pratap had alleged that around Rs 20 lakh in cash and several valuable items were missing from his residence. However, Motilal Rai's wife had rejected the allegations and claimed that her husband was being targeted as part of a conspiracy.
Tej Pratap Issues Warning Through X Post
In his latest post on X, Tej Pratap Yadav warned people about Motilal Rai and alleged that his former PA was contacting people and demanding money.
Tej Pratap appealed to people to exercise caution and verify any such demand before making any payment or handing over any belongings. His post has attracted attention because the dispute between the two had already escalated into a police complaint and political action.
However, Motilal Rai's response to the latest allegations has not yet been clearly reported. Therefore, the claims made by Tej Pratap should be treated as allegations unless independently verified or established through an investigation.
Earlier Police Complaint
The dispute between Tej Pratap and Motilal Rai is not new. In June 2026, Tej Pratap reportedly filed a complaint at the Secretariat police station in Patna against his former PA.
The complaint reportedly alleged that approximately Rs 20 lakh in cash and other valuable items had gone missing from his residence. The alleged missing items reportedly included electronic devices and other belongings.
According to reports, the complaint mentioned items such as iPhones, pen drives, a hard disk, a laptop and other articles. Tej Pratap had sought police action in connection with the alleged disappearance of these items.
The matter subsequently became a subject of political and public discussion.
Motilal Rai Was Also Removed From the Party
Following the dispute, Tej Pratap Yadav announced that Motilal Rai had been removed from the post of national general secretary of the Jan Shakti Janata Dal.
The development further intensified the controversy surrounding the former aide. Motilal Rai had previously been associated with Tej Pratap, but their relationship reportedly deteriorated after the allegations surfaced.
The latest X post has now brought the earlier controversy back into public discussion.
Allegation of Money Demands
The most recent allegation made by Tej Pratap is that Motilal Rai is now demanding money from people.
Tej Pratap has warned people against responding to such demands without verifying the identity of the person making the request. He has also sought to make it clear that people should not assume that a request for money or assistance is genuine merely because it is allegedly linked to him or his organisation.
Such warnings are particularly significant in the era of social media, where individuals can sometimes use the names of political leaders or public figures to contact supporters and members of the public.
At the same time, there is currently no independent confirmation of Tej Pratap's latest allegation. The claim therefore remains an allegation and would require verification through evidence or an official investigation.
Earlier Claims Also Remain Contested
The earlier allegations involving missing cash and valuables were also disputed by Motilal Rai's family.
Motilal Rai's wife had reportedly claimed that her husband was being framed as part of a conspiracy. Her statement presented a different version of events from the allegations made by Tej Pratap.
This makes it important to consider the claims of both sides while assessing the controversy. Any final conclusion regarding the allegations would depend on the findings of the police investigation or relevant legal proceedings.
Social Media Becomes the Main Platform for the Dispute
Tej Pratap Yadav has frequently used social media to communicate directly with the public. His latest post regarding Motilal Rai is another example of how political figures increasingly use platforms such as X to address personal and political controversies.
By publicly naming his former aide and warning people about alleged financial demands, Tej Pratap has sought to put his position directly before the public.
The post has also triggered renewed discussion about the relationship between the two and the earlier police complaint.
Importance of Motilal Rai's Response
Motilal Rai's response will be important in understanding the latest controversy. While allegations have been made against him, the principle of hearing both sides remains important in any such dispute.
If Motilal Rai or his representatives issue a formal response to Tej Pratap's latest allegations, it could provide additional context regarding the claims.
Until then, the allegations made through social media should not be treated as established facts. Any legal or criminal responsibility can only be determined through the appropriate investigation and judicial process.
Police and Legal Proceedings Could Become Important
The earlier dispute had already reached the police after the complaint filed by Tej Pratap. If the latest allegations lead to another complaint or legal action, the role of law enforcement agencies could become significant.
If anyone receives a request for money allegedly made in the name of Tej Pratap Yadav or his organisation, the safest course would be to verify the request and, where necessary, inform the appropriate authorities.
The distinction between social media allegations and legally established facts is particularly important in a case that involves personal accusations and financial claims.
Controversy Gains Fresh Attention
Tej Pratap Yadav's latest X post has once again brought Motilal Rai into the spotlight. Tej Pratap has alleged that his former PA is demanding money from people and has warned the public to remain cautious.
The dispute had previously involved allegations of missing cash and valuables, a police complaint and Motilal Rai's removal from the party. The latest allegation adds another dimension to the controversy.
For now, Tej Pratap's version is publicly available, while a clear response from Motilal Rai regarding the latest allegation is awaited.
The developments will likely be watched closely, particularly if the latest claims result in a police complaint, investigation or further public response from either side.
The case also highlights the growing importance of social media in political and personal disputes. While such platforms allow public figures to communicate directly with citizens, allegations made online still require independent verification before they can be considered established facts.
As the controversy develops, the response from Motilal Rai and any further action by the police or other authorities will be crucial in determining the next stage of the matter.
