News Topical, Digital Desk : KC Tyagi, a senior JDU leader, and his son, Ambrish Tyagi, have joined the Rashtriya Lok Dal (RLD). RLD President and Union Minister Jayant Chaudhary formally inducted the two leaders into the party. KC Tyagi has been active in politics for a long time, and the party is expected to benefit from his experience. Ambrish Tyagi's arrival could also strengthen the RLD's influence among the youth.
There was already speculation
The rumors about KC Tyagi joining the RLD have been circulating for several days, but they have now come to an end. On the 16th of this month, he issued a statement clarifying that he had not renewed his membership under the JDU's membership drive. This sparked speculation about his departure from the party.
The distance increased due to the statement regarding Nitish Kumar
In fact, on January 9th of this year, KC Tyagi demanded the Bharat Ratna for Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar. This statement prompted a sharp reaction from the JDU. The party even stated that it was unclear whether Tyagi was still in the party. This marked a growing rift between him and the party.
Tyagi has been an old and important face of JDU.
KC Tyagi has been a key leader of the JDU since its inception. When the Samata Party and Janata Dal merged in 2003, Tyagi was considered a strong pillar alongside George Fernandes, Sharad Yadav, and Nitish Kumar.
He served as the party's general secretary for a long time and maintained close coordination with the top leadership. Now, his move to the RLD is being seen as a major political shift.
