These days, Mrityunjay Tiwari is in the headlines in Bihar politics. The reason for this is his resignation from all posts in Rashtriya Janata Dal. After his resignation, there is speculation as to where Tiwari, who has been associated with RJD for a long time, will go after leaving the party.
Within 24 hours of Mrityunjay Tiwari’s resignation from RJD, some of his pictures have surfaced. These pictures have definitely given some hints regarding his upcoming political move. Yes, Mrityunjan Kumar has directly reached Madhya Pradesh after resigning. Let us know the whole matter….
Meeting with senior BJP leader
In the politics of Bihar, the resignation of Mrityunjay Tiwari, a senior leader of Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), who was a vocal supporter of the party for a long time, has given rise to new political discussions. He has not yet made an official announcement of joining any other party, but his meeting with senior BJP leader Madhya Pradesh government minister Kailash Vijayvargiya has intensified speculation in the political circles.
After the pictures surfaced on social media, the question is being raised whether Mrityunjay Tiwari will soon start his new political innings with a new party, or it was just a courtesy meeting.
Meeting with Kailash Vijayvargiya became center of discussion
Mrityunjay Tiwari, while sharing pictures of his meeting with Kailash Vijayvargiya in Indore, described him as a practical, popular leader. He also publicly expressed his gratitude for the respect and cordiality received during the meeting.
In politics, meetings of leaders are often seen as a sign of the future. In such a situation, this meeting of the leader who recently left the party has given rise to political speculations. However, it is also being said that this meeting took place before his resignation from RJD, so it is too early to reach any conclusion at this time.
Played important role in RJD for a long time
Mrityunjay Tiwari has been considered the main Brahmin face of RJD. He continued to play the role of the party’s national spokesperson and media in-charge for years. Lalu Prasad Yadav had entrusted him with this responsibility in the year 2014, after which he continuously strongly defended the policies and leadership of the party.
Political analysts believe that leaving the party of such an experienced leader will not only be an organizational loss but will also be considered symbolically important.
Left the party alleging neglect
After the resignation, Mrityunjay Tiwari said that he was being continuously ignored in the organization for the last several months. He also tried to convey his views to senior leaders, but his complaints were not given any serious attention.
He says that the influence of some new influential people in the party has increased so much that even the old senior leaders are not able to express their views openly. He also said that he always followed party discipline and never got involved in anti-organization activities, but due to not getting respect, he had to take this decision.
Will the caste equation of Bihar change?
Social caste equations have always played a decisive role in the politics of Bihar. RJD has long been identified as a party with Muslim-Yadav (MY) equation, but in the last few years it has also tried to increase its acceptance among the upper caste community, especially the Brahmin community.
In such a situation, if Mrityunjay Tiwari joins another political party, its impact will not be limited to just one leader changing party, but its political message can also be broader. Especially at a time when political activities are intensifying regarding the by-elections and upcoming assembly elections in the state.
Why can Mrityunjay Tiwari be important for other parties?
Mrityunjay Tiwari is considered not only an organizational leader but also a leader with a strong hold on the media and political discourse. Being the face of opposition politics for a long time, he has a good understanding of the political conditions and social equations of Bihar.
If he joins any other party in the future, the party concerned can benefit from him as an experienced spokesperson, strategist and influential face of the upper caste community.
Only speculation at the moment, official decision pending
According to the currently available information, Mrityunjay Tiwari has only resigned from RJD. He has not made any official announcement of joining any new party nor has any political party confirmed his entry.
However, recent political activities have made it clear that all parties are keeping an eye on his next move in Bihar politics. It will become clear in the coming days whether he moves ahead with a new political platform or decides to play an independent political role. It is certain that his next step can give rise to a new discussion in the politics of Bihar.
