Former Vice President
jagdeep dhankhar was very famous during his tenure and his resignation is also in the headlines. After Dhankhar's resignation, there was a stir in the political corridors. He announced his resignation on the first day of the monsoon session of
parliament on July 21, citing
health reasons, but the story has come out to be something else. An NDTV report claimed that Dhankhar received a call from the
central government and during this time he had an argument. Due to this he had to resign.
Actually the whole story is woven around Justice Yashwant Verma. According to a report by Aaj Tak, the Parliamentary Affairs
minister had informed the Vice President 4-5 days before the start of the
parliament session that the
government was bringing a motion against Justice Verma in the
lok sabha and Rajya Sabha. The
government had also got the proposal signed by including opposition parties in the Lok Sabha. Meanwhile, on
sunday (July 20) and
monday (July 21), some opposition leaders met the Vice President and discussed about bringing a proposal against Justice Verma.
Did the Vice President ignore the Center's appeal?
However, Dhankhar did not disclose that the opposition leaders had brought the proposal. He formally accepted the proposal on
monday morning and was also going to make an announcement in the House. Meanwhile, the
government contacted Dhankhar three times and appealed for the proposal. The
government said that everyone's signatures are being collected. During this,
jp nadda and Dhankhar also met, but Dhankhar did not give any assurance to the government. He indicated that the proposal with the signatures of the opposition is going to be
read in the House.
Did the distance between the
government and Dhankhar increase?
The report claims that Dhankhar met senior
congress leaders on
monday and ignored the government's words despite repeated appeals. From here the rift between Dhankhar and the Center became clear. Dhankhar planned to resign before any action was taken by the
government and reached Rashtrapati Bhavan. He met President
draupadi murmu and submitted his resignation.
