After resigning from the post of Vice President, Jagdeep Dhankhar says that he will not give farewell speech, he is heating the market of speculation. Meaning it is clearly visible that everything is not happy somewhere. Political cosmons and journalists are speculating all kinds of speculation. A senior TV journalist writes that the Congress, who used to complain about the behavior of Jagdeep Dhankhar on the matter and brought them to the motion of no confidence to remove them from the post, today he is distressed by the resignation of Dhankhar. At the same time, one aspect is also that BJP leaders standing like a rock behind Dhankhar are no longer reacting to their resignation. Even on social media, they are not writing posts for the betterment of their health.
There are speculations that they had become more generous than suddenly needed towards the opposition. Especially the way he accepted the opposition proposal to impeach Justice Verma.
Dhankhar has been making rhetoric about the Judicry for a long time. It is being said that he wanted to be the face of the proceedings of impeachment on Justice Verma. The opposition accepted the notice in this regard and took the credit of this action in its court. While the power side did not get any news. It is being said that the action of giving notice to the Rajya Sabha chairman kept the action completely confidential and did not even take any photo of it.
Did Nadda know the whole story?
On Monday, the second meeting of the Business Advisory Committee (BAC) was held at around 4.30 am amid the proceedings of the House and it was present as a representative of the ruling party, Minister of State for Information and Broadcasting L. Murugan. Murugan urged Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar to get the meeting on the next day i.e. on Tuesday.
A report to date shows that Jagdeep Dhankhar was angry with the absence of the absence of JP Nadda and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju in the Rajya Sabha in the BAC meeting. The Business Advisory Committee had a meeting twice the previous day, but no result was found. Congress MP Sukhdev Bhagat has also questioned the absence of JP Nadda and Kiren Rijiju in the BAC meeting. Linking the resignation of Vice President Dhankhar to the Bihar Assembly elections, he said that the script of Dhankhar’s resignation had already been written. He told that in the House, JP Nadda had said that my words would be recorded in the record, it was directly an insult to the chair.
Jairam Ramesh says that the most surprising thing was that Jagdeep Dhankhar was not personally told that both ministers would not come to the meeting. The Congress leader claimed that he naturally felt bad about this and postponed the next meeting of BAC for 1 pm on Tuesday. Ramesh says that it is clear that there has been some serious talk between 1 pm to 4:30 pm tomorrow, due to which JP Nadda and Kiren Rijiju did not deliberately participate in the evening meeting.
However, the Leader of the House JP Nadda has given clarification in the Rajya Sabha for not coming to the BAC meeting. He said, ‘I and Kiran Rijiju did not participate in the meeting convened by the Vice President at 4.30 pm as we were busy in any other important parliamentary work, the prior information of which was given to the Honorable Vice President’s office.’
BJP’s silence surprised
How uncomfortable the power side is feeling about the resignation of Dhankhar, it can be gauged from the fact that Nadda, the leader of the House in the Rajya Sabha, has not yet reacted to the resignation of Dhankar. Similarly, no message from Prime Minister Modi and other big leaders of BJP also did not appear on social media, especially X. If the health of Dhankhar was bad, then BJP leaders would have been made to go to their house to ask skilled Kshem.
At least on X, they could have wished for better health. This did not happen either. There was no attempt to persuade on the resignation. Nor did any BJP leader tweeted, calling his tenure historic. On the contrary, the opposition has suddenly made its tongue sweet for Dhankhar. Leaders like Kapil Sibal and Jairam Ramesh have praised him.
Was fully fit during the proceedings in the House
A political storm was taking shape just behind the political activities that looked normal from above. On Monday, Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar accepted the notice of opposition members of the impeachment motion against Justice Verma. This happened at the same time (2 pm) when it was reported that more than 100 MPs from the ruling and opposition parties in the lower house have signed a notice of impeachment motion against Justice Verma.
Around 4:07 pm, Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar gave detailed information about receiving notice from 63 opposition MPs on impeachment motion. When notices are given in both houses on impeachment motion against a judge, as he reminded of the process, it was a sign of his hyperactivity. Dhankhar gave details of the process and also asked Law Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal to confirm whether notice has been given in the lower house.
It was clear that in any way, Dhankhar wanted that the process of impeachment should start in the Rajya Sabha. He went ahead and asked for further action as per the formation and rules of a joint committee. In his activism, it did not seem from anywhere whether he was ill or will not be present tomorrow. He did not indicate any other intentions to his health or resignation even in his last address and attendance.
