Former Vice President Dhankar gave statement regarding his sudden resignation last year
Churu. Former Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar has given a big statement regarding his sudden resignation given in July last year. Addressing a public meeting in Churu, Rajasthan on Thursday, he made it clear that his resignation was not due to ill health, but he had taken this step to give priority to health. Dhankhar said that it is said that the first happiness is a healthy body. I have never been careless towards my health. When I said I was resigning, I never said I was ill. I said that I am giving importance to health and should also give it.
Let us tell you that in his resignation letter submitted to the President on July 21, 2025, Dhankhar had written that he was resigning from his post to give priority to health care and follow medical advice. In August last year, Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, had raised serious questions on Dhankhar’s sudden resignation and his silence thereafter. Rahul Gandhi had said that there is a big story behind why Dhankhar resigned. Some of you may know this, some may not. Why is the Vice President of India in such a situation that he cannot say a word… and he has to hide… Suddenly the person who used to roar a lot in the Rajya Sabha has become completely silent.
This Churu tour of Dhankhar was hosted by former Congress MP Ram Singh Kaswan and Olympian and former Congress MLA Krishna Poonia. Let us tell you that Ram Singh Kaswan is the father of current Congress MP from Churu, Rahul Kaswan. Explaining the reason for his visit, Dhankhar said that he was worried about the health of Ram Singh Kaswan and this concern brought him to Churu. Dhankhar also recalled that whenever he himself became unwell, Ram Singh was always at the forefront of those who inquired about his well-being.
