Mr Yadav accepted the bet and began eating. He ate 41 eggs and just when he started eating the 42nd egg, he collapsed and fell unconscious.
The local people rushed him to the district hospital from where he was referred to the Sanjay Gandhi Post Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences. He died hours later.
Doctors claimed Mr Yadav died due to over-eating, while family members refused to comment on the incident, police added.
