"He could have resigned after the conclusion of the Monsoon session", says JMM MP Mahua Maji on VP's resignation

New Delhi [India], July 22 (ANI): Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) Member of Parliament (MP), Mahua Maji, speaking on Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar resignation on Tuesday, said that he could have resigned after the conclusion of the Monsoon session.

This is very shocking for everyone. He could have resigned after the conclusion of the Monsoon session. Everyone is making assumptions regarding the reason behind Vice President Jagdeep Dhankar resignation. There should be clarity on it, said Maji.

Earlier on Tuesday, Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Priyanka Chaturvedi on Tuesday questioned the Central government over Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar resignation, claiming that the latter seemed in fine health.

Referring to Congress MP Jairam Ramesh X post, which alleged deeper reasons behind the resignation, Priyanka Chaturvedi demanded that the government inform the reason behind the decision and also recalled the non-confidence motion against Dhankhar in December 2024.

Speaking to ANI, she said, For the first time in the history of India, a no-confidence motion was signed by over 50 members of the Parliament because of the partisan manner in which the House was being conducted. He (VP Jagdeep Dhankhar) was a partisan. It is for the government to tell us what was the reason for the government to tell us what was the reason for the sudden resignation, because he seemed in fine health.

She added that despite the health concerns, Rajya Sabha Chairman Dhankhar used to conduct parliamentary proceedings.

Despite his health situation, he used to conduct parliamentary proceedings. This is the first time a Vice President has resigned in such a shocking manner, and I hope we get to know more, she said.

Chaturvedi further added that there should be no disruption in the proceedings of the House amid the resignation.

There should be no disruption in the proceedings of the House and his work as a Vice President and a Chairman, the Shiv Sena (UBT) MP said. (ANI)
