Aishwarya Rai is also the grand-daughter of former Chief Minister Daroga Prasad Rai.
The ceremony was attended by close family members and relatives including Pratap’s sister and RJD Rajya Sabha MP Misa Bharti and his brother and the Leader of Opposition Tejashwi Yadav.
For the wedding, which is likely to take place next month here, Lalu Prasad is expected to seek judicial permission to attend it.
Lalu Prasad’s youngest daughter Raj Laxmi tied the knot with the grand-nephew of Samajwadi Party patriarch Mulayam Singh Yadav in 2014.
