News India Live, Digital Desk: Jagdeep Dhankhar’s Sharp Attitude: Vice President of India and Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar is known to emphasize on his impunity and parliamentary dignity. On several occasions, he has taken a tough stand on the disruption and irregular behavior of the opposition in the House. On one such occasion, there was a statement that caught the attention of the whole country when he had almost even spoken about ‘resignation’. The situation was created when unacceptable conduct was seen by some members within the Parliament. The incident took place when the proceedings were going on in the House and the opposition members were constantly protesting, which repeatedly disrupted the proceedings of the House. Vice President Dhankhar continuously appealed to the members to remain calm, return to their seats and follow the rules and keep their point. He insisted on maintaining the dignity of the temple of democracy, but when his request and appeal did not work, and indiscipline continued in the House, Jagdeep Dhankhar became extremely frustrated and distressed. In this agony, he expressed his displeasure in a strict tone and said that if the House will continue to run like this, and the members do not respect the parliamentary rules, then it will be difficult for him to remain in this post. He almost pointed out that if the situation does not improve, then he can also think of resigning. This reflects his deep grief and his respect for parliamentary traditions. His statement was taken seriously, and it was a tough message for the entire political class that to what extent the persons sitting in constitutional positions can feel uncomfortable when dignity is disturbed when parliamentary proceedings are disturbed. Jagdeep Dhankhar, who has already been the Governor of West Bengal, has always encouraged healthy traditions of following rules and debates. His statement was to remind him that democracy is not only a set of rules, but is based on a sense of respect and dignity. The incident also states how challenging the post of Vice President and Rajya Sabha Chairman is when he has to run the House’s proceedings smoothly amidst the aggressive protests of the opposition members.
