His initiation into politics came early, when during the Indian Independence movement, he was arrested on December 14, 1942 for writing Anti-British leaflets opposing imperialist policies, and sent to Nainital jail, where his father was already lodged.[4]
Upon his release 15 months in 1944, he joined Allahabad University, where he topped the University in M.A. (Political Science), he continued his education doing LLB from the same university, and elected as the President of the Students’ Union of the Allahabad University in 1947.

Early career
In the first election in Uttar Pradesh after the independence for the Uttar Pradesh Legislative Assembly held in 1952, he was elected from Nanital constituency and became an MLA for the first time on Praja Samajwadi Party ticket. In 1957, he was elected from the Nainital legislative constituency, and became the leader of Opposition in the Assembly. he
In 1963, he joined the Indian National Congress, and was elected M.L.A. from the Kashipur, Uttarakhand constituency in 1965, in the same year he was appointed a minister in the Government of Uttar Pradesh. After that he also remained Minister for Finance and Parliamentary Affairs in the Chaudhary Charan Singh Government (1979–1980). In 1968, he established Jawaharlal Nehru National Youth Centre (JNNYC) is a voluntary Organisation. He remained the first President of Indian Youth Congress from 1969 to 1971.
Later positions
N.D. Tiwari was the chief minister of Uttar Pradesh three times: from January 1976 to April 1977, from August 1984 to September 1985 and from June 1988 to December 1988. He did a lot of work in developing the road and bridge network of U.P. - the network expanded significantly. He was elected to 7th Lok Sabha in 1980, and served as a union minister in several portfolios in the 1980s: starting with Planning, and also remained Dpt. Chairman, Planning Commission. Thereafter he became a member of Rajya Sabha 1985-1988, during this period he also remained the Minister of Industries in September 1985 and in addition to that portfolio, became minister of Petroleum in 1986. He then served as India's External Affairs Minister from October 1986 until July 1987, at which point he became Minister of Finance and Commerce,[3][6] serving in that position until June 1988, when he became chief minister of Uttar Pradesh for the third time.
He was a contender to be Prime Minister of India in the early 1990s but was beaten by the late Narasimha Rao.[7] One of the key reasons was that he lost the Lok Sabha elections by a mere 800 votes. In 1994, he resigned from Congress and formed his own All India Indira Congress (Tiwari) along with senior Congress leader, Arjun Singh in 1995, but joined back when Sonia Gandhi came at the helm of affairs of the party two years later, and after a devastating defeat of the party under Narasimha Rao during the general elections in 1996. Tiwari was elected to the 11th Lok Sabha in 1996, and again to the 13th Lok Sabha in 1999.
He later served as the Chief Minister of Uttarakhand, which was carved out of Uttar Pradesh, from 2002 through 2007. He offered to resign on 5 March 2006, citing his age. He left office in March 2007 following setbacks for his party in the state elections.
Governor appointment
Narayan Dutt Tiwari was appointed as Governor of Andhra Pradesh on 19 August 2007 and was sworn in on 22 August.[8] He resigned as the Governor on 26 December 2009, citing "health grounds."[9] His departure followed a sex scandal that began with the broadcast by Telugu language cable news channel ABN Andhra Jyothi of a video that allegedly showed Tiwari in bed with three women at his official residence in the Raj Bhavan.[10] A police complaint was filed against Tiwari for "sexually abusing girls, blackmail and misuse of office" and the Raj Bhavan staff are being interrogated by police about details related to the scandal, alleged to be the result of the fallout of a mining deal.[11] Tiwari publicly apologized, but claimed that he was being "framed" by "a political conspiracy."[12] On 27 December 2009, Ekkadu Srinivasan Lakshmi Narasimhan was appointed to discharge the duties of governor for the region until regular arrangements for the office are made.[13]
Sex Scandal
On Friday, Dec 25, 2009 a Hyderabad based TV channel named ABN Andhra Jyothi News aired three-and-a-half-minute video clipping showing Mr. Tiwari with three young women in bed. This news created much uproar in media and clipping immediately appeared on YouTube and various other places on internet. The video is quite graphic which showed an old man kissing and performing lewd sex acts like sandwich massage, 69 etc. with women. The video was released only a month after a court rejected a paternity suit against Mr Tiwari, from a man claiming to be son of Mr. Tiwari who is alleged to have had an extramarital affair. The news channel also said that a woman called Radhika arranged the sting after Mr Tiwari promised her a lucrative mining contract in return for arranging regular liaisons for him with women — but then reneged on his side of the deal. On Friday a court issued an injunction to stop the television station ABN Andhra Jyothi News from continuing to broadcast the video but it has become one of the most popular clips on YouTube.[14]
Mr. Tiwari resigned two days later under the anger of public on sexual misbehaviour. He denied all the charges and accused that tapes are fake and blamed some politicians to divert attention from recent Telangana crisis. Later he accused that it was language bias against him.
The managing director of ABN Andhra Jyothi Mr. Vemuri Radhakrishna when told about allegations that the tapes were doctored, told TOI: " Neither the news story nor the tapes are fabricated. Neither is it for sensation mongering." He added: "Offices like that of the Governor are exemplary and it's sickening to see a person holding such a high office behave in such a manner... I am prepared to face any conseqences. We are trying to get the court stay vacated."
