‘Under Pressure…': Opposition Raises Red Flag Over VP Dhankhar's Sudden Exit; BJP Silent
In a move that shocked the political establishment, Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar resigned from his post, citing health reasons. The resignation, which came just after he addressed the first day of the Monsoon Session, has sparked strong reactions from the Opposition. Congress leaders Kapil Sibal, Neeraj Dangi, Danish Ali, and Imraan Masood expressed disbelief and raised concerns over the sudden decision. While Sibal called Dhankhar one of the most proactive Rajya Sabha Chairmen with a 'warm golden heart,' Dangi and Danish Ali hinted at pressure from the government and possible differences over the impeachment motion against judges. Imraan Masood also questioned the abrupt nature of the resignation, noting Dhankhar's presence in Parliament earlier in the day.#jagdeepdhankhar #vicepresident #rajyasabha #kapilsibal #neerajdangi #danishali #imraanmasood #resignationshock #monsoonsession #indianpolitics #parliamentnews #oppositionvoices #article67a #democracyinindia Read More

BJP constituencies cut up to confuse voters, delay BBMP polls, claims party
BENGALURU: Following the split in Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) and announcement of five corporations, BJP leaders have lashed out at the Congress government, saying that Padmanabhanagar, RR Nagar, Dasarahalli and Mahadevapura have been deliberately added into different zones. City BJP President S Harish said the move behind the unscientific split is to delay elections. Supporting Harish's claim, Umesh Shetty, former Nagarbhavi corporator, said the attempt is to create confusion among voters. 'Mahadevapura's Bellandur is added into East and South corporations, and will add a lot of confusion,' he said. 'The basic rule for delimitation of municipalities is that assembly constituencies should not be disturbed, but the Congress government has done it. Padmanabha Nagar, the assembly seat of Opposition leader R Ashoka, is divided. One part is with the Bengaluru South corporation, and the other with West. Most BJP-ruled assembly segments are targeted, and this exercise is to delay municipal elections,' said Harish.

Parliament LIVE updates: Manickam Tagore submits adjournment notice to discuss Bihar SIR
Parliament LIVE news: Vice President of India Jagdeep Dhankhar stepped down from his position on Monday night, citing health concerns and the necessity to adhere to medical advice. His resignation, submitted to the President of India, was made under Article 67(a) of the Indian Constitution. In his resignation letter, Dhankhar conveyed his 'deepest gratitude' to the President for her 'unwavering support and the soothing wonderful working relationship we maintained during my tenure.' He also acknowledged Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Union Council of Ministers. With the sudden resignation of Jagdeep Dhankhar, an election for the Vice President's post is now imminent. Both the ruling BJP and the INDIA bloc are expected to begin scouting for potential candidates, though the numbers currently favour the ruling party, placing the opposition at a disadvantage. The Monsoon session of Parliament opened contentiously on Monday, with the opposition repeatedly forcing adjournments in the Lok Sabha. Their demands included an urgent debate on Operation Sindoor and other pressing matters. Simultaneously, proceedings began in both Houses concerning the proposed removal of Justice Yashwant Varma, following the discovery of burnt bundles of cash at his residence.
