‘There are far deeper reasons for his resignation': Jairam Ramesh questions Jagdeep Dhankhar's resignation as vice-president
Hours after the Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar announced his resignation citing health concerns, the Congress said Tuesday morning that it is 'also a fact that there are far deeper reasons for his resignation'. Congress Rajya Sabha member and Communication in charge Jairam Ramesh said Dhankhar's resignation 'speaks highly of him'. 'It also speaks poorly of those who had got him elected as Vice President in the first instance,' said Ramesh in a post on X. Ramesh said at 12.30 pm Monday, Dhankhar chaired the Business Advisory Committee (BAC) of the Rajya Sabha. 'It was attended by most members, including the Leader of the House, JP Nadda, and the Parliamentary Affairs Minister, Kiren Rijiju. After a brief discussion, it was decided that the committee's next meeting would be held again at 4:30 pm,' said Ramesh. The Congress leader said the committee members gathered again for the meeting under Dhankhar's chairmanship at 4.30 pm, and waited for Nadda and Rijiju, but they did not show up'. 'They never came. Shri Jagdeep Dhankar was not personally informed that the two senior Ministers were not attending. Rightly he took umbrage and rescheduled the BAC for today at 1 PM. So something very serious happened yesterday between 1 PM and 4:30 PM to account for the deliberate absence of Shri Nadda and Shri Rijiju from the second BAC yesterday,' he wrote in the post. Ramesh said that 'in a truly unprecedented move, Shri Jagdeep Dhankar has resigned'. 'He has given health reasons for doing so. Those should be respected. But it is also a fact that there are far deeper reasons for his resignation,' said the Congress MP. 'While always lauding post-2014 India, he spoke fearlessly for the welfare of farmers, forcefully against what he called 'ahankar' in public life, and strongly on judicial accountability and restraint. To the extent possible under the current G2 ruling regime, he tried to accommodate the Opposition. He was a stickler for norms, proprieties, and protocol, which he believed were being consistently disregarded in both his capacities'.

Dhankhar's resignation sparks buzz: Opposition not on same page? Priyanka Chaturvedi ‘fact checks' Jairam Ramesh
NEW DELHI: Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar's sudden resignation late Monday has sparked a wave of speculation and political reactions. A notable disagreement has emerged within the opposition ranks regarding his tenure and abrupt exit. Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Priyanka Chaturvedi early Tuesday took aim at attempts to paint Dhankhar's tenure as balanced, pushing back against Congress leader Jairam Ramesh's defence of the outgoing Rajya Sabha Chairman. Without naming Ramesh directly, Chaturvedi quoted the Congress general secretary's claim that he 'took both the Government and the Opposition to task in equal measure' and dismissed it as false, reminding critics that the Opposition had once been compelled to bring a no-confidence motion against him. — priyankac19 (@priyankac19) Ramesh, reacting to Dhankhar's sudden resignation on Monday evening, described the move as 'shocking' and 'inexplicable'. He said, 'Mr. Dhankar took both the Government and the Opposition to task in equal measure.' However, on early Tuesday, Chaturvedi quickly contradicted that claim with a sharp rebuttal on social media. 'Fact check: Incorrect. Reminder: Opposition was forced to file a no confidence motion against the chair because of the partisan manner of conduct. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like After 35 Years, Her Jewelry Is Nearly Gone The Heritage Journal Read More Undo Let's at least not forget that, just because, the moment has come as a surprise,' she posted. Ramesh, meanwhile, has suggested that Dhankhar's resignation involved more than just health concerns. In two detailed statements across Monday evening and Tuesday morning, Ramesh recounted events that he believed pointed to deeper tensions. He highlighted how Dhankhar had chaired the Business Advisory Committee (BAC) at 12:30 PM on Monday, where most members, including JP Nadda and Kiren Rijiju, were present. A follow-up meeting was scheduled for 4:30 PM but both Nadda and Rijiju failed to attend without informing Dhankhar personally. 'Rightly he took umbrage and rescheduled the BAC for today at 1 PM,' Ramesh said. He added, 'So something very serious happened yesterday between 1 PM and 4:30 PM to account for the deliberate absence.' While stating that the health reasons cited by Dhankhar must be respected, Ramesh noted, 'It is also a fact that there are far deeper reasons for his resignation.' Ramesh praised Dhankhar for speaking up 'fearlessly' on issues such as farmers' welfare and judicial accountability and for trying, 'to the extent possible under the current G2 ruling regime,' to accommodate the opposition. 'Shri Jagdeep Dhankar's resignation speaks highly of him. It also speaks poorly of those who had got him elected as Vice President in the first instance,' he concluded. Dhankhar, 74, had undergone angioplasty recently and had served as Vice President since August 2022. His sudden exit came on the first day of the monsoon session, catching many in Parliament off guard.

Congress says ‘far deeper reasons' behind Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar's resignation
The Congress on Tuesday (July 22, 2025) claimed that there are "far deeper reasons" for Jagdeep Dhankhar's resignation as the Vice-President than the health reasons cited by him, and said his resignation speaks highly of him but poorly of those who got him elected to the post. Congress general secretary in-charge communications Jairam Ramesh said Mr. Dhankhar chaired the Business Advisory Committee of the Rajya Sabha at 12.30 p.m. on Monday (July 21, 2025). 'It was attended by most members, including Leader of the House JP Nadda and the Minister of Parliamentary Affairs Kiren Rijiju. After some discussion, the BAC decided to meet again at 4:30 PM,' he pointed out in a post on X. At 4:30 p.m., the BAC reassembled under the chairmanship of Jagdeep Dhankhar, Mr. Ramesh said. "It waited for Shri Nadda and Shri Rijiju to arrive. They never came. Shri Jagdeep Dhankhar was not personally informed that the two senior Ministers were not attending. Rightly he took umbrage and rescheduled the BAC for today at 1 PM," Mr. Ramesh claimed. So "something very serious" happened yesterday between 1 p.m. and 4.30 p.m. to account for the deliberate absence of Mr. Nadda and Mr. Rijiju from the second BAC yesterday, he said in a post on Tuesday (July 22, 2025). 'Now in a truly unprecedented move, Shri Jagdeep Dhankar has resigned. He has given health reasons for doing so. Those should be respected. But it is also a fact that there are far deeper reasons for his resignation,' Mr. Ramesh claimed. Yesterday, Shri Jagdeep Dhankar chaired the Business Advisory Committee of the Rajya Sabha at 12:30 PM. It was attended by most members, including Leader of the House JP Nadda and the Minister of Parliamentary Affairs Kiren Rijiju.

'To the extent possible under the current G2 ruling regime, he tried to accommodate the Opposition. He was a stickler for norms, proprieties, and protocol, which he believed were being consistently disregarded in both his capacities,' Mr. Ramesh said. Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar resigns citing medical issues 'Jagdeep Dhankar's resignation speaks highly of him. It also speaks poorly of those who had got him elected as Vice President in the first instance,' he said. The Opposition on Monday (July 21, 2025) raised questions over Dhankhar's sudden resignation as the Vice-President, with the Congress saying that clearly, there is "far more to his totally unexpected resignation than meets the eye". The Congress also urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to convince Mr. Dhankhar to change his mind. In a sudden move, Mr. Dhankhar resigned from his post on Monday (July 21, 2025) evening, citing medical reasons. He sent his resignation to President Droupadi Murmu and said he is stepping down with immediate effect. "The sudden resignation of the Vice President and Chairman of the Rajya Sabha is as shocking as it is inexplicable. I was with him alongside a number of other MPs till around 5 PM today and had spoken to him over the phone at 7:30 PM," Mr. Ramesh said in a post on X on Monday (July 21, 2025) night. 'No doubt Mr Dhankhar has to give topmost priority to his health. But clearly there is far more to his totally unexpected resignation than meets the eye,' he had said. This is not the time for speculation though, Mr. Ramesh added. Mr. Dhankhar took both the government and the Opposition to task in equal measure, he said. 'He had fixed a meeting of the Business Advisory Committee tomorrow at 1 PM. He was also to make some major announcements related to the judiciary tomorrow,' Mr. Ramesh had said. 'We wish him the best of health but also request him to reconsider his decision. We also expect the Prime Minister to get Mr Dhankhar to change his mind. This will be in the nation's interest,' the Congress leader said. The farming community, in particular, will be greatly relieved if Mr. Dhankhar changed his mind, he added. Mr. Dhankhar, 74, assumed office in August 2022 and his tenure was till 2027. He is also the Chairman of the Rajya Sabha and his resignation came on the first day of the Monsoon Session of Parliament. Mr. Dhankhar had recently undergone angioplasty at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in Delhi. In his eventful tenure as the Rajya Sabha chairman, Mr. Dhankhar had several run-ins with the Opposition, which had also moved a motion to impeach him. The motion, the first time ever in independent India to remove a Vice-President, was later rejected by Rajya Sabha Deputy Chairman Harivansh.

G2 and Smiley tap into Gen Z's gaming-fashion nexus with collab
In an era where digital identity holds as much sway as physical presence, esports giant G2 Esports and the iconic pop symbol Smiley have joined forces to launch a limited-edition capsule collection targeting a generation where gaming and fashion increasingly overlap. The collaboration marks a first for Smiley, both in the esports space and in fully designing a gaming-led streetwear line. This could inspire a shift in how traditional lifestyle brands are reaching digitally native audiences. Launching exclusively online on July 17th, the G2 x Smiley collection offers a mashup of aesthetic codes: oversized graphics, summer-ready silhouettes, and a logo that fuses G2's signature samurai mask with Smiley's unmistakable yellow grin. The effect is something between irreverent optimism and digital warrior chic and will appeal to those fluent in meme culture and marathon Twitch streams. 'G2 is about pushing limits — in competition and creativity,' says Sabrina Ratih, COO of G2 Esports. 'We created something that's fun, daring, and unapologetically us.' Indeed, the launch is more than a fashion statement, t's a strategic branding play at the intersection of two cultural forces: esports and streetwear. G2, founded in 2015 and now with over 40 million global fans, is leveraging its momentum, including a seven-figure Series B raise and a growing media arm, to deepen its foothold in lifestyle. This collaboration follows a rising industry trend: fashion labels infiltrating gaming environments, not just through digital skins or sponsorships, but through tangible products worn IRL and URL. The capsule includes t-shirts, hoodies, and a limited-edition tufted rug, with an autumn/winter drop planned via pop-up retail later this year, complete with accessories, jeans, and more layering pieces. Love affair with gaming goes physical The fashion world's flirtation with gaming is fast becoming a full-blown relationship. According to Accenture, the global gaming industry is now worth over 320 billion dollars, surpassing film and music combined. For Gen Z, over 60 percent report engaging with fashion through digital channels like gaming and social media, with virtual self-expression increasingly mirroring (and influencing) physical wardrobe choices. From Balenciaga's Fortnite skins to Gucci's Roblox experiences, the convergence is undeniable. Yet few brands have married the offline with the online as natively as G2, which has evolved from competitive esports organization into a media-savvy lifestyle brand with credible fashion collaborations, including previous projects with Ralph Lauren and Adidas. 'Being playful is powerful,' says Ross Wilson, Chief Product Officer, Fashion at The Smiley Company. 'And G2 embodies that energy. They bring joy and fearlessness to their global community.' A new cultural lexicon for a new generation What makes the G2 x Smiley drop notable is its tone: optimistic, irreverent, and proudly self-aware. At a time when luxury houses struggle to capture the authenticity craved by Gen Z, G2's approach is refreshingly unfiltered. The brand wears its meme-savvy, post-ironic ethos on its sleeve, quite literally. This isn't G2's first foray into lifestyle, but it may be its most symbolically significant. As the organization marks its 10th anniversary in 2025, the Smiley collaboration serves as a bridge between fandom and fashion, gaming and IRL streetwear, and a glimpse into the future of cross-cultural brand expression.
