Krishna Tirath is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on March 3, 1955 in Karol Bagh, India. Krishna Tirath (born 3 March 1955) is an Indian politician from INC. She was a member of the 15th Lok Sabha of India representing the North West Delhi constituency of Delhi. She was Minister of State (Independent Charge) in Ministry of Women and Child Development in the second Manmohan Singh ministry. She left the Indian National Congress (INC) political party, and on 19 January 2015 she joined Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Later on in March 2019 she rejoined the Indian National Congress.

On 24 January 2010 a photograph of former Pakistan Air Chief Marshal Tanvir Mahmood Ahmed in uniform appeared along with those of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Congress president Sonia Gandhi in a full-page newspaper advertisement (see External Links below) given by Ministry of Women and Child Development to mark the National Girl Child Day. Initially Mrs.Tirath refused to accept the error on behalf of her ministry, accused the media of hair- splitting, and stated, “[the] message is more important than the image. The photograph is only symbolic. The message for the girl child is more important. She should be protected.” She later apologised on behalf of her ministry for publishing a photograph of a former Pakistan Air Force chief in a government advertisement and said an inquiry will bring out who was responsible for it. The former air marshal, upon learning of the publication, “..wasn’t aware about this [and felt it was] an innocent mistake.”

On 19 January 2015, she formally joined the BJP after meeting Mr Amit Shah – the BJP President. She contested from Patel Nagar (Delhi Assembly constituency) as a BJP candidate for the 2015 Delhi Legislative Assembly election and was defeated by Hazari Lal Chauhan of AAP by a margin of 34,638 votes. She left the Bharatiya Janata Party in March 2019 and rejoined Indian National Congress.

On 13 September 2010, Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) cancelled the appointment of Krishna Tirath’s daughter Yashvi Tirath for the post of anchor- cum-correspondent in state run telecaster Doordarshan News.
