When India's
14th Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar suddenly resigned on the night of 22 July
2025, the political atmosphere across the country suddenly heated up. He did
cite health reasons and doctor's advice in his resignation, but this news was
no less than an earthquake in the corridors of power.-But this does
not seem to be a coincidence, especially when...
-There was a
serious atmosphere in the BAC meeting of the Rajya Sabha.
-Senior
leaders like JP Nadda and Kiren Rijiju were absent And BJP MPs were made to
sign on blank papers.
What happened
in the meeting, which led to the resignation? Congress leader Sukhdev Bhagat
linked the entire incident to the Bihar elections and said that it was a
pre-written script.
He alleged
that JP Nadda's statement in the House - "My words will be recorded"
- was an insult to the Vice President's chair.
Was Dhankhar
hurt by this insult? It is also worth noting that Dhankhar chaired meetings
till a few hours before his resignation, and suddenly reached Rashtrapati
Bhavan without any appointment.
Is everything
not okay within the BJP? There was a commotion in Rajnath Singh's office on the
same day. Sources say that some BJP MPs were asked to sign on "blank
papers" - an indication that everything was not normal.
The
resignation of a strong leader like Dhankhar cannot be a normal event.
The question
arises - had the differences between Dhankhar and the BJP leadership increased?
Was he
punished for having an independent opinion on some issues?
The Congress
claims that something big happened on Monday afternoon, due to which Dhankhar
had to resign. The opposition suggests that the government should persuade him,
otherwise it is a sign of constitutional dignity and the weakening tradition of
democracy. After Dhankhar's resignation, the big question is who will be the
next Vice President?
Will this be
an opportunity to strike a political equation?
Will Nitish
Kumar's name be included in this race - as some analysts are speculating?
Dhankhar's
resignation is not only a vacancy of a constitutional post, but it has also
left a question - is there a silent storm at the center of power? When there is
something deeper behind the pretext of health reasons, democracy must seek
answers.
The sudden
resignation of Jagdeep Dhankhar may be shocking, but it is also true that this
is the beauty of Indian democracy - here every question arises, and every
answer comes out with time.
- This also
gives a signal to future leaders that moral values, dignified dialogue and
public responsibility can never be ignored.
- It is
possible that in the coming times the reasons behind this resignation will
become clear, and the country will get a Vice President who will touch new
heights of the values of the Constitution.
People's
expectations, power of democracy and the soul of the Constitution - these are
the three pillars that give a new direction to India after every political
confusion.
So, do not
consider this incident as just a political turning point - this is an
opportunity for the country to make politics more transparent and responsible.
