The Republican Party of India (Athavale) is a political party in India, a splinter group of the old Republican Party of India. The president of the party is Ramdas Athavale & the Secretary of the party is Dayal Bahadure.

After 2004 election, it had a small representation in the Lok Sabha and was a constituent of the ruling United Progressive Alliance. Its presence is limited to Maharashtra.

All factions of the RPI except Prakash Ambedkar's Bharipa Bahujan Mahasangha have reunited to form a united "Republican Party of India". RPI (Athavale) also merged in this united RPI.

In 2011 the party aligned itself with the Bharatiya Janata Party-led National Democratic Alliance.^[1]

On 28 September 2015, the RP(A) was one of 16 parties in Maharashtra to lose its registration for not submitting audited balance sheets and IT return documents since 2005. Thus they have lost their official election symbols.^[2]
