Sources close to Lalu Prasad's family claim that he will go to the residence of Misa Bharti in the national capital and is expected to reach Patna on April 30.
His family is eagerly waiting for his arrival in Patna, the sources said, adding that things are not smooth in RJD and Lalu Prasad's family thanks to his son and Hasanpur MLA Tej Pratap Yadav.
A youth leader had levelled serious allegations against Tej Pratap for holding him captive at Rabri Devi's residence on April 22 and beating after after stripping him.
Following the incident, he has shifted to 10 circular road residence of Rabri Devi. There is also a buzz that Tejashwi may shift to his official Polo road bungalow. His political advisor Sanjay Yadav has already shifted.

He claimed to have exposed Manjhi through a sting.
The highly specialised medical services to be rolled out across the state by end November will prove to be a boon for people, especially the poor for whom expert private sector medical care is out of reach, he said.
The Minister while addressing the inaugural session of 'Connect Karo 2021 - Towards Equitable, Sustainable Indian Cities' event, said that there can be no doubt that India's cities "enabled by citizen-centric infrastructure and transformational technology" will be the key to achieving the nation's development objectives.
Meanwhile, India logged 27,254 new Covid cases in the last 24 hours. The country also reported 219 Covid deaths in the same time span. The country presently has nearly 3.75 lakh active cases.
At a virtual Covid-19 review meeting, the Chief Minister said vaccine effectiveness is evident from the data being analysed. Special efforts were made to reach out to the government employees, and those who continue to avoid getting vaccinated will now be asked to go on leave till they get the first dose.
DGP Dinkar Gupta said with the case load decreasing, people had started being lax about wearing masks, which the Health Department should strictly enforce with the help of the police.
Additional Chief Secretary Devendra Singh and Deputy Commissioner of Karnal Nishant Yadav are participating in the meeting. From the farmers side, BKU president Gurunam Singh Chaduni and the state leadership will present their demands.
