Mrityunjay Tiwari, a former spokesperson of the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), joins the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) days after quitting the RJD. According to NDTV, Tiwari announced his departure on July 16 in a video statement, saying he was “feeling suffocated” within the party. Both reports indicate that his move to BJP follows that announcement, marking a party switch within a short period. The Economic Times frames the development as Tiwari joining BJP after he quits RJD. The available reports do not provide detailed reasons beyond Tiwari’s comments about discomfort within the RJD, nor do they include specific information about any role or position he receives in BJP. The change is presented as a straightforward political realignment, with the timing centered on his July 16 resignation message and the subsequent joining of BJP shortly thereafter.
