Rabri Devi in search of beautiful, homely bahus

Patna: Former Bihar Chief Minister Rabri Devi is currently looking for good looking and homely girls for her two sons Tej Pratap Yadav and Tejaswi Prasad Yadav, who are both Ministers in Nitish Kumar’s cabinet.

“The girls should be good looking and homely so that they look after family matters inside and outside the home,” she said on the 70th birthday of Lalu Prasad Yadav. “We have seen a lot of photographs of eligible girls, but not many of them were to our liking,” she added.

“I did not show those photographs to my sons as I myself did not like them,” Rabri Devi told the Hindu.

Seemed quite clear in her mind, she defined her perspective on the eligibility criteria of the girls she told: “Girls frequenting cinema halls or malls are ruled out. We are searching for girls who will respect elders like me,” she said.

Deputy Chief Minister Tejaswi Prasad Yadav backing what his mother said, merely said the job is best left to the parents and elders of the family. “Our parents will take a decision on what type of bahus they want for us,” he said with a sheepish grin.
