		Gopalganj, Feb. 21: A clash between two IAS officers has forced the chief minister’s brother, Sadhu Yadav, to travel to the land of Buddha’s last journey and, if the RJD parliamentarian moves according to his plans, he would soon be seeking Lord Ram’s blessing as well.
		Prasad had quashed the district magistrate’s order to declare Sadhu Yadav a “zilla badar”, a phrase that has entered the rich poll-time lexicon, and roughly means orders to an individual to keep off a district.
		Sadhu’s position is not a cause of envy, because his wife, Indira Yadav is contesting the Gopalganj seat as an Independent, despite the RJD fielding Ambika Prasad Yadav as its official candidate.
