Yadav, is minister for Health, Environment and Forest in the Nitish Kumar government. He is facing charges of acquiring 'benami' property in Patna and Aurangabad and has been allegedly allocated a petrol pump on the basis of 'fudged' information.
Sushil Modi said Yadav has organised a 'yagna' at his official residence to defeat his 'enemies' and had purchased the car as astrologers had advised him not to use his old vehicle during the 'yagna period'.
The BJP leader, who has levelled a series of allegations of corruption against Tej Pratap Yadav and other family members of Lalu Prasad, demanded that he and his brother Deputy Chief Minister Tejaswi make public their 'benami' properties worth 'crores of rupees'.
Lalu Prasad and RJD have dismissed the charges and in return alleged that Sushil Modi had helped his brother R K Modi in earning through dubious business.
