Rakesh Tikait is also spokesperson of the Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) from Uttar Pradesh, India.
Early life

His eldest brother is Naresh Tikait, who is the National President of the BKU.[2]
Career
Tikait graduated with an M.A. degree from Meerut University and then did LLB after that. He joined Delhi Police in 1992, as constable then Sub Inspector,[3] but left Delhi police in 1993–1994. After leaving police, he joined as a member of BKU.[2] After the death of his father, Tikait officially joined BKU and later became its spokesperson.[2] In 2018, Tikait was the leader of Kisan Kranti Yatra from Haridwar, Uttrakhand to Delhi.[4] Tikait had contested the 2007 UP Assembly elections from the Khatauli seat as a candidate of the Bahujan Kisan Dal (BKD) party (with Congress support), only to finish a distant sixth.[5][6] In the 2014 Indian general election, he fought on a Rashtriya Lok Dal ticket from Amroha Lok Sabha constituency.[7] He admits that he supported BJP in 2019 lok Sabha elections.[7]
Protests
In November 2020, his organization, BKU joined the 2020–2021 Indian farmers' protest, demanding declaration of MSP as a legal right, exclusion of farmers from the law to curb pollution to allow burning of stubble (consensus to which was reached during the sixth round of talks between the Centre and Farmer Union)[8] and removal of the farm bills. After violence broke out in the National Capital on 26 January (Republic Day), Delhi Police filed an FIR against Rakesh Tikait and a few other farmer leaders for their alleged role in inciting violence on Republic Day and breach of the NOC issued by Delhi Police.[9] His press interview where he said "Bakkal Tar Denge" played a major role in inciting them.
