Mahadangal: Jagdeep Dhankhar’s Resignation Sends Shockwaves, Opposition Suspects Political Gameplan

Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar’s sudden resignation has created a political stir across the country. Citing health reasons, Dhankhar announced his decision late last night, which was quickly accepted by the President. While the official statement attributes it to medical advice and the need for rest, the silence from the ruling BJP has raised eyebrows. Opposition leaders claim this is no ordinary resignation. ABP News’ prime-time show Mahadangal saw heated debates where politicians from various parties questioned the BJP’s lack of response and transparency. Critics argue that such a high-level resignation, without a detailed explanation, is a blow to democratic norms. Some speculate that the resignation is a political strategy—possibly to elevate Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar to the Vice President's post. The opposition also criticized how discussions about Dhankhar's health are being dismissed and politicized. They claim this reflects poorly on the current political culture, where even personal matters are turned into strategic narratives. The possibility of reshuffling key positions ahead of major elections adds to the speculation. As the debate continues, many believe the real story behind Dhankhar’s resignation may surface soon, possibly pointing to deeper political realignments within the NDA.
