Lucknow Mourning: Prateek Yadav Dies at 38, Mulayam Singh Yadav’s Son
Prateek Yadav, Leeds-educated businessman and animal-welfare advocate, passes away in Lucknow at 38; autopsy pending as details emerge.
Prateek Yadav, the younger son of Mulayam Singh Yadav and his second wife, Sadhna Gupta, died in Lucknow on Wednesday morning at the age of 38.
According to Civil Hospital officials, information about his deteriorating health was received around 5 am, after which a medical team was dispatched to his residence. He was declared dead at 5:55 am and later brought to Civil Hospital. Authorities are awaiting the postmortem report to determine the exact cause of death.
Prateek studied at the University of Leeds in the United Kingdom and was involved in real estate and fitness ventures in Lucknow. He owned a gym named “Iron Core Fit” and was known in local business circles for his interest in fitness entrepreneurship. He was also actively involved in animal welfare through the organization “Jeev Ashray,” which works for the rescue, treatment, feeding, and care of stray dogs.
Despite coming from one of the country’s most influential political families, Prateek largely stayed away from active politics. He was married to Aparna Yadav, a BJP leader, adding another layer to his public profile. Friends and colleagues describe him as an animal lover who dedicated time to welfare causes while pursuing business interests.
