Congress Leader Parshuram Tiwari Quits Party

Ramgarh’s seat has been allotted to RJD’s Ajit Singh, who is the son of RJD state president Jagdanand Singh. After his nomination, old Congress leader Parshuram Tiwari, who hails from the same region, has resigned from the party. Notably, Parshuram Tiwari has been associated with Congress for nearly two decades. He has sent his resignation directly to Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge. Parshuram Tiwari has been a Congress candidate from the Ramgarh assembly seat twice in the past. In his statement, he said that the Congress party in Bihar has become a puppet of RJD. The party and the alliance are being run by people who support familyism, and it is no longer possible for him to stay with the party. Therefore, he is resigning from the primary membership of the party.
