Rabri Devi, former Bihar Chief Minister and wife of politician Lalu Prasad Yadav, has said that she doesn’t want cinema hall and mall-going girls as her daughters-in-law and would rather prefer a "well-cultured girl".
Celebrating Lalu's 70th birthday on Sunday along with her family members, including two sons Tej Pratap and Tejashwi Prasad Yadav who are ministers in the state government, Devi said she was looking for “desi” girls for the two sons, reported The Times of India.
"Cinema hall aur mall jane wali ladki nahi chahiye. Ghar chalaane wali, bade buzurg ka aadar karne wali, jaise ki hum hain, waisi ladki chahiye. (I don't want cinema hall and mall-going girls. She should be one who can look after the house, respect elders, and manage outside work, just like me)."

Interestingly, Lalu and his family are under the scanner for ‘soil to mall’ scam. Senior BJP leader Sushil Kumar Modi has urged chief minister Nitish Kumar to set up an all-party committee to probe the soil purchase scam in which, he alleged, minister Tej Pratap Yadav was involved.
Modi alleged that the land for the mall was acquired by the Yadav family under a new name by using Lalu’s influence when he was the railway minister in 2008.
