Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar has resigned from his post, citing health concerns and requesting to be relieved immediately. The announcement came as a surprise on the evening of the first day of the monsoon session of Parliament, a day he presided over proceedings in the Rajya Sabha. The timing has raised questions, despite acknowledgements of his recent hospitalisations. An opposition MP, Akhilesh Pratap Singh, who met him hours before the announcement, stated, “This is shocking… it’s shocking for us. It’s shocking for everyone.” The development also brings Dhankar’s controversial tenure as Rajya Sabha Chairman into focus, where the opposition often accused him of partisanship. With his resignation, speculation has begun about his successor, the pending appointment of a new BJP President, and a potential cabinet reshuffle. #jagdeepdhankhar #vicepresident #dhankharresigns #indianpolitics #parliament #monsoonsession #rajyasabha #breakingnews #indiatoday #modigovernment #politicalnews
