Rajkumari Devi (born 1947) is the ex-wife of LJP Supremo Ram Vilas Paswan of Shaharbani, Khagaria, Bihar, India. She is a housewife and recognized as the first wife of the center’s minister Ram Vilas Paswan.

The lady entered the news after her deep sadness at the news of the death of her beloved ex-husband on October 8, 2020.

Her condition was miserable to look at, moreover, everyone was shocked how she can be so sad about the death of a person who left her alone after 21 years of marriage.

Married life

Rajkumari married Ram Vilas Paswan in 1960, she was only 13 years old at the time and the ram was 14 years old.

They also shared two daughters, Usha and Asha. She really loved the minister. But unfortunately the marriage failed miserably. According to Ram Vilas Paswan’s ex-wife, he never gave her the respect and affection that she deserved from her as a woman.

And to make the situation even worse, Ram Vilas is in love with a flight attendant, Rina Sharma.

They met several times on the flight and then had an affair. This affair shattered the life of Rajkumari Devi, her marriage of 23 years ended in divorce. He married a flight attendant in 1983 and since then he and Reena Paswan have lived happily together.

According to the sources, he was not on good terms with his ex-wife Rajkumari and their daughters. His eldest son, Asha, admitted many times in stages that he did not love them and left his mother alone because she is less educated and she is a villager.

She never gets love from her marriage, all Rajkumari Devi has are her daughters and endless loneliness. The 73-year-old woman is still waiting for her husband to come to her and sit with her and talk to her. But her hope ended with the death of the central minister.

However, his only symbol that he possesses is his daughters, who are not soft on their father like their mother Rajkumari. Her eldest daughter, Usha, is not as socially active as her mother, but her youngest daughter, Asha, is a politician.

And besides, it belongs to RJD, not LJP. She is married to Sadhu Paswan, former LJP MLA, who won two consecutive times.

But in 2019 when Chirag is in command of the party, he did not give him input. So, in protest, Sadhu and Asha left the party and joined the opposition.

Ram Vilas Paswan was always busy building his political empire, he never took any risk that could damage his personality in front of the public.

This is the possible reason why he kept his second marriage a secret for a long time. According to the affidavit he submitted in the 1997 election, he declared Rajkumari to be her current wife and did not mention anything about Rina, although he was actually divorced from her at the time.

This matter was highlighted again in 2014 when Chirag Paswan, the son of Ram Vilas from his second marriage, got into a heated argument with Tejasvi Yadav, the son of Lalu Prasad and Rabri Devi. It was Chiraag who started the argument, but it ultimately backfired on him.

Tejasvi asked him who is Ram Paswan’s real wife as he never stated his mother as his wife anywhere in writing.

To settle this matter, Ram Vilas Paswan filed his divorce papers with Rajkumari Devi, his ex-wife, which claimed that they divorced in 1981. That in turn led to another controversy as to why he declared her as his wife in 1997 if they were divorced. .
