Pappu Yadav Sparks Row: Claims Dhankhar Felt ‘Insulted’ by JP Nadda, Quit Under RSS Pressure

Amid the political tremors following Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar’s sudden resignation, independent MP Pappu Yadav has made an explosive claim, stating that Dhankhar felt “insulted and humiliated” by BJP leader JP Nadda’s remarks in the Rajya Sabha. According to Yadav, the Vice President’s dignity and constitutional authority were undermined when Nadda said, “Nothing will go on record, only what I say will.”Yadav alleged that Dhankhar’s resignation was not due to health concerns, as officially stated, but was actually the result of deep dissatisfaction with BJP leadership and RSS pressure. “Such a thing has never happened in independent India. Dhankhar’s self-respect was hurt,” Yadav said, suggesting that Dhankhar was sidelined for not aligning fully with the Sangh’s directives.The controversy stems from a heated moment in Parliament where JP Nadda overruled interjections and asserted his words would be the only ones on record — a statement many saw as overriding the Chair’s constitutional authority.Meanwhile, old footage has resurfaced showing Dhankhar expressing confidence about retiring in August 2027, contradicting the sudden resignation narrative.As political leaders from all sides react and strategy meetings intensify, attention now turns to the looming question: Who will be India’s next Vice President?
