New Delhi,22nd July 2025: In a surprising development, Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar has tendered his resignation, citing health-related concerns as the reason behind his decision.
The resignation was officially submitted on the first day of the new Parliament session, adding a significant moment to the opening proceedings.
Dhankhar, who assumed office as the 14th Vice President of India in August 2022, was also serving as the Chairman of the Rajya Sabha. His departure is expected to create a political vacuum at the top constitutional level.
Sources indicate that Dhankhar had been dealing with persistent health issues over the past few months, which eventually prompted him to step down from active public duty.
Further updates are awaited from the Rashtrapati Bhavan, and discussions regarding the appointment of a new Vice President are expected to begin soon.
