Bandhu Tirkey is an Indian politician and a former Member of Jharkhand Legislative Assembly elected from Mandar of Jharkhand state as a member of Jharkhand Vikas Morcha (Prajatantrik) in 2019.

Babulal Marandi expelled his party MLAs Pradeep Yadav and Tirkey from the party for anti-party activities. Both of them later joined Indian National Congress in its Delhi headquarters as Jharkhand Vikas Morcha (Prajatantrik) party was merged with Bharatiya Janata Party.[1][2][3]

On March 28, 2022 Bandhu was convicted and sentenced to 3-year jail term related to corruption charges.[4]

In April 2022, he was disqualified from the 5th Jharkhand Assembly after the conviction by the CBI court on disproportionate assets case.[5]
