Announcing the name on X, Prasad said, "So our grand daughter Katyayani's little brother is named 'Iraj' by me and Rabri Devi. Tejashwi and Rajshree have given him full name as 'Iraj Lalu Yadav'." "Katyayani was born on Katyayani Ashtami, the 6th day of auspicious Navratri and this little bundle of joy is born on Bajrang Bali Hanuman Ji's Mangal day of Tuesday, therefore naming him 'Iraj'. Thank you all for your best wishes and blessings! The new born and his mother are doing well," he added.
According to a family member, the baby was born at a private hospital in Kolkata where Rajshree was admitted for the last few days.
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee had also visited the hospital and met Yadav on Tuesday.
Talking to reporters outside the hospital, Banerjee said, "Lalu ji and Rabri ji are here and they are very happy. I wish peace and happiness for the family of Tejashwi."
