Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar Resigns

In a surprising development, Vice President of India and Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar has resigned from his offices for health reasons and medical recommendations. The news came as a shock to most, as his plans were not known until his resignation letter was released. Dhankhar had presided over the Rajya Sabha session on Monday, the opening day of the new Parliament session, as he went about chairing the proceedings despite disruptions from opposition protests.

Renowned for his blunt and candid approach, Dhankhar’s sudden move to resign has surprised everyone. Resignation on health grounds by senior political figures is rare in the first place, and from a position as procedural as the Chairmanship of the Rajya Sabha, which can be taken care of by the Deputy Chairman in the absence of the Chairman. This has generated huge speculation about possible underlying reasons that could have dictated his decision.
