College Managing Committee|DAV College]], [[Siwan, Bihar|Siwan]]. Yadav married Radhika Devi on 1 May 1980, with whom he has five daughters and a son.

==2004 elections==
In 2004, Om Prakash Yadav contested the [[2004 Indian general election|general elections]] as a JD-U party candidate and lost to Shahabuddin, who was also in jail then, but could fight elections since he was yet to be convicted. There was widespread intimidation, and opponents were not able to campaign effectively because of an aura of fear.<ref name=bbc>

}}</ref> Despite this, Om Prakash managed to get more than 2 [[lakh]] votes against Shahabuddin. Subsequently there was widespread violence against his the-then JD-U party
:For the crime of having dared put up a credible fight, nine JD workers were killed in the days following the election. Yadav was assigned a team of eight bodyguards.<ref>

Om Prakash Yadav himself had to flee his hometown of Lalji near Siwan, and wait out the ganglord's anger while the newly elected state government worked on providing him security.

==2009 elections==
In the 2009 elections, his main opponent Hena Shahab never campaigned, showing herself in public only at a few meetings with RJD supremo [[Lalu Prasad Yadav]] and their star campaigner, movie actor [[Sanjay Dutt]]. She never spoke at the huge rallies, but only waved her hand.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://specials.rediff.com/election/2009/apr/15sld1-from-behind-a-veil-a-prisoners-wife-seeks-the-vote.htm |title=rediff.com: From behind a veil, a prisoner's wife seeks the vote |work=[[Rediff.com]] |date=15 April 2009 |access-date=24 February 2012}}</ref> It was clear that the campaign was being run in Shahabuddin's name, by his well-oiled election machinery, though many of his gang members, such as Rustam Mia, Dhruv Jayaswal, Shubrati Mia, Munsi Mia and others were in Siwan jail.

Also, since Nitish Kumar came to power in Bihar in 2005, he set up fast track courts that have sent 14,000 criminals to jail, and the atmosphere of intimidation appears to have eased up considerably.<ref>
