• Prince Yadav was found dead in a Biratnagar hotel after being an accused in the June 2 attack.

The director of a Patna coaching center, Raushan Anand, has leveled a grave accusation against social media influencer and educator Faisal Khan. Anand claims that Khan got his younger brother, Prince Yadav, murdered in a "well-planned" manner. This serious allegation arises from the intense rivalry between two major educators who train government job aspirants in the region. The timing of the accusation coincides with the recent discovery of Yadav's body, bringing the long-standing tension between their respective institutions to a violent and tragic peak.

The tragic sequence of events began on June 2, when Anand and two others were arrested for allegedly attacking the Khan Global Studies (KGS) coaching center in Patna. A Patna court rejected Anand’s bail plea on June 9, keeping him in custody. While Anand was detained, his brother, who was listed as an accused in the June 2 incident, was killed. His dead body was discovered on Sunday, June 14, 2026, in a hotel in Biratnagar, Nepal. Anand states that he was in jail during the time of the murder and blames Khan directly.

“I was arrested in a false case lodged by ‘Khan sir’. My younger brother Prince Yadav was murdered in a well-planned manner. While I was in jail, he got my brother murdered. I seek justice for Prince and demand an impartial inquiry,” Anand said. He is the director of Gyan Bindu Academy Coaching Centre. His accusation marks a significant escalation in the conflict that has long simmered between the two coaching institutes located in the Musallahpur Hat area of Patna.

In response to the death, Mr. Khan released a video on Monday, June 15, condoling Yadav’s death. In the video, he demanded a high-level probe into the incident. However, the legal and security situation remained volatile. On Monday, Anand was escorted away from the court to an unknown destination. Students gathered at the court told The Hindu that Anand would return to his home in Saharsa to perform the rituals for his brother’s death. The area is known for a proliferation of similar coaching centers, with thousands of students from various districts living in nearby lodges.

The background of the conflict involves a violent incident on the night of June 2. Approximately 15-20 people allegedly attacked Mr. Khan’s center, vandalizing the premises and beating a security guard. An institute staff member lodged a case against Anand and others, leading to their arrest. The situation further complicated on June 4 when a video went viral showing two guards of Khan’s center firing in the air during the attack. Police seized the weapons for ballistic testing and arrested the guards. They allegedly claimed they fired on the instructions of Khan sir.

This allegation against Khan led to a police complaint against him. In response, Khan went incommunicado while his lawyers approached a local court for relief. On June 9, the court stayed Khan’s arrest “till further orders” and scheduled the next hearing for June 20. The following day, Khan approached the Patna High Court to quash the FIR against him and request permission to open his center. As of the current reporting, the court has not passed any order on this petition.

Security measures were significantly tightened following the news of Yadav’s death. On Sunday, June 14, police beefed up security around Khan’s center. A police officer stated that the heightened security was aimed at thwarting any further attacks on the institute. Following the June 2 incident, both the Gyan Bindu Academy and the Khan Global Studies center were shut down. Students and staff from both institutes have been keeping a low profile, fearing potential police action or retaliatory violence.

Political and Social Reaction

The death of Prince Yadav has drawn attention beyond just the coaching community. Tej Pratap Yadav, the founder of Janashakti Janata Dal and the elder son of Rashtriya Janata Dal chief Lalu Prasad, has publicly blamed Mr. Khan for the death. Tej Pratap Yadav stated, “Khan sir should be sent to jail for this.” This political involvement highlights how the Patna coaching centre clash has transcended educational competition to involve broader social and political dynamics.

The rivalry between these two figures represents more than just business competition; it reflects the intense pressure and high stakes involved in the government job aspirant community in Bihar. The violence and subsequent accusations have exposed the fragility of peace within this sector. The shutdown of both centers has left thousands of students in limbo, with no clear indication of when normalcy will return. The demand for an impartial inquiry by Anand and the call for a high-level probe by Khan reflect the public’s desire for truth in a situation clouded by mutual accusations.

As the legal proceedings continue, with Khan’s arrest stay in place and Anand in custody, the case remains under intense scrutiny. The upcoming hearing on June 20 will be crucial in determining the next steps in the legal battle. Meanwhile, the police investigation into the murder in Nepal and the allegations of inciting violence in Patna are ongoing. The situation underscores the need for stringent regulation and monitoring of such high-profile educational institutions to prevent further escalation of hostilities.

Future Implications for the Coaching Sector

The fatal outcome of the dispute between Khan Sir and his rival, Raushan Anand, signals a dangerous precedent for the coaching industry in Patna. With both major centers shut and students displaced, the immediate impact is a significant disruption for government job aspirants. If the legal outcomes do not restore confidence in the security of these institutions, it could lead to a long-term decline in the viability of physical coaching centers in the Musallahpur Hat area. The involvement of political figures like Tej Pratap Yadav suggests that future conflicts may increasingly be weaponized for political gain, making regulatory oversight and strict enforcement of law and order even more critical for the stability of the education sector.
