==Early life==
Devi Prasad Tripathi was born in Sultanpur [[Uttar Pradesh]]. As a student, Tripathi was president of [[Jawaharlal Nehru University, Delhi|Jawaharlal Nehru University]] [[Students' Union]], and later taught at [[Allahabad University]] as a professor of politics.

==Career==

He was also the editor of the quarterly journal ''Think India''. He spoke Indian and several foreign languages, and lectured in a number of foreign universities.

Having become involved in politics at the age of sixteen, Tripathi became one of Prime Minister [[Rajiv Gandhi]]'s aides. He left the [[Indian National Congress|Congress Party]], however, over his opposition to [[Sonia Gandhi]], the President of the Party, becoming Prime Minister (because of her foreign origin). He joined the [[Nationalist Congress Party]] in 1999, and reached the position of its General Secretary and chief spokesman. He was responsible for negotiating over seat-sharing in [[Maharashtra]].
