Lucknow, May 14 (PTI) The funeral of Prateek Yadav, the younger son of Samajwadi Party founder the late Mulayam Singh Yadav, will take place at 11 AM on Thursday here, his wife Aparna Bisht Yadav said.
Aparna, a BJP member and vice chairperson of the state Women’s Commission, late Wednesday night made the announcement on social media.
“It is with profound sorrow that we inform you that the last rites of Shri Prateek Yadav ji, beloved son of the late former Chief Minister ‘Padma Vibhushan’ Shri Mulayam Singh Yadav ji and dear to all of us, will be performed tomorrow (Thursday) morning at 11 AM at Baikunth Dham (Bhainsakund),” she posted on X.
“In this hour of grief, your esteemed presence is earnestly requested,” she added.
She also shared the image of a card that read “final farewell in loving memory of Prateek Yadav”.
It further stated that the loss was “mourned by Aparna Yadav (wife), Prathama Yadav (daughter) and Padmaja Yadav (daughter)”.
Prateek Yadav, 38, died Wednesday morning after falling ill with cardiac-lung complications, according to doctors.
Prateek, a fitness enthusiast and entrepreneur, chose to stay away from the spotlight notwithstanding the fact that he belonged to a prominent political family in Uttar Pradesh.
He was the stepbrother of SP chief and former Uttar Pradesh chief minister Akhilesh Yadav. Prateek’s mother Sadhna was the second wife of SP patriarch Mulayam Singh Yadav. PTI KIS DV DV
