Congress terms Dhankhar's resignation 'inexplicable', urges him to reconsider

IndiaTimes Monday, 21 July 2025 ()
In a surprising turn, Congress has appealed to Jagdeep Dhankhar to retract his resignation as Vice President, even petitioning PM Modi to intervene. Jairam Ramesh termed Dhankhar's departure "inexplicable," hinting at undisclosed reasons beyond the stated medical concerns. This appeal is unexpected, given Congress's previous criticisms and no-confidence motions against Dhankhar.
