JDU - KC Tyagi resigns from the post of JDU national spokesperson, Rajiv Ranjan takes over

KC Tyagi News: KC Tyagi has resigned from the post of National Spokesperson of Janata Dal (United) due to personal reasons. Rajiv Ranjan Prasad has now been appointed in his place. Party General Secretary Afaque Ahmed Khan gave this information. The reason for Tyagi's resignation may be his controversial statements and differences arising within the party. Especially, his statements on foreign policy made the JDU leadership uncomfortable. New spokesperson Rajiv Ranjan Prasad will now carry forward the official message of the party.

Also appointed as special advisor

According to the statement, National President Nitish Kumar has appointed Rajiv Ranjan Prasad as the new national spokesperson of the party. JDU veteran leader Tyagi was appointed as National Spokesperson as well as Special Advisor in May 2023. In a statement issued regarding his appointment, it was said that to take advantage of Tyagi's organizational experience, Bihar Chief Minister and party chief Nitish Kumar has appointed him as the Special Advisor and Chief Spokesperson of the party.

"Differences due to statements"

However, there may be many other reasons behind KC Tyagi's resignation, including differences within and outside the party due to his statements. KC Tyagi has been a prominent face of JDU for a long time. In the recent past, he made many statements that were different from the official line of the party. On many occasions, he issued statements without consulting the party leadership or other senior leaders. Due to this, a situation of discontent started appearing within the party, which gradually became serious.

Due to KC Tyagi's statements, news of differences within the NDA also came to the fore. Especially on the issue of foreign policy, he signed a joint statement to stop the supply of weapons to Israel, in tune with the leaders of the India Alliance. This move was uncomfortable for the JDU leadership. Due to this, the controversy increased within and outside the party.
