After quitting Janata Dal (United), ex-Rajya Sabha MP KC Tyagi joined the Rashtriya Lok Dal (RLD) on Sunday in the presence of RLD President and Union Minister Jayant Chaudhary. Tyagi said, "I began my political career with the Lok Dal itself...This is just its original form...there's nothing new in it." He added, "There is no difference between JD(U) and RLD."
