India’s Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar resigned from his post on the first day of the monsoon session of Parliament on 21 July. He cited health reasons, but the opposition says that he not only resigned because of health, but was sought to resign from him.

Jagdeep Dhankhar’s term was till August 10, 2027, but he resigned before the term ended. When Congress MP Shashi Tharoor was asked who would be the next Vice President of the country, he said that there is no idea of it. He said that it is clear that the next Vice President will be nominated by the ruling party, as the structure of voters is already decided. Tharoor also hoped that the central government would consult the opposition, but at the same time we hope that they will also consult the opposition, but who knows.

Know how the election for the post of Vice President is?

The Vice President of India is elected by an electoral college which only consists of elected members of the Lok Sabha and elected and nominated members of the Rajya Sabha. The total number of voters is 782. It consists of 542 members of Lok Sabha and 240 members of Rajya Sabha. The Vice President requires 391 votes to win. The election process will start on 7 August. The last date for nomination has been fixed on 21 August and the result will come out on 9 September.

Will NDA easily win the election of Vice President?

The ruling NDA alliance currently has 293 members in the Lok Sabha and 129 members in the Rajya Sabha. In this way, he has a total of 422 votes votes. This makes it clear that if the NDA remains united, their nominated candidate can easily win the post of Vice President. On the basis of this calculation, Shashi Tharoor’s statement seems rational that this election has become just a process.

Jagdeep Dhankhar’s tenure

Dhankhar has been a vocal and active Vice President. He presided over several important Bills as the Chairman of Rajya Sabha and tried to bring clarity and discipline in the proceedings. However, some controversies also came up during his tenure, such as disagreement with the government’s stand on the impeachment of Justice Yashwant Verma, a possible disagreement with the Center and the President’s Secretariat, including sharp dialogues with the opposition. His health problems were also serious and recently he was admitted to a hospital in Nainital.

The Supreme Court on Tuesday (July 22, 2025) said that the court’s time should not be wasted in such cases. This case is related to Tharoor’s 2018 statement in which he gave a controversial statement about Prime Minister Narendra Modi. This comment was given by the bench of the Supreme Court, headed by Justice B.R. Was doing Gawai.

What did the court say?

According to the report of India Today, the bench was hearing the petition of Tharoor in which he has demanded the cancellation of the defamation proceedings against him in the Delhi court. When the case was discussed in the court on the case filed by BJP leader Rajiv Babbar, Babbar’s lawyer said that he has filed his reply, but the bench was not affected by it.

The court said, “You pay attention to more important matters. Why do you entice the court in such things?” The bench also clarified that it will hear the case of Shashi Tharoor next week. Along with this, another defamation case filed against Aam Aadmi Party leader Arvind Kejriwal and Atishi will also be heard.

When Rajiv Babbar’s lawyer demanded a separate list of both cases, the court strictly said, “Don’t tell us what to hear and how to order.”

What was the matter?

In fact, in November 2018, Shashi Tharoor made a controversial statement about PM Modi in a program. On that comment, BJP leader Rajiv Babbar had filed a defamation case alleging hurting religious sentiments and damaging the Prime Minister’s image.

What did the Supreme Court say before?

In October 2023, the Supreme Court issued a notice on the petition of Tharoor challenging the Delhi High Court’s decision, refusing to cancel the case. At that time the court had said, “Many times a metaphor narrates the truth in less words. Just as a picture speaks more than a thousand words, there is also a metaphor. I do not know why people are hurt by it.” Since then, the Supreme Court had stayed the proceedings of the trial court, which brought Shashi Tharoor relief from the appearance. Now the Supreme Court will hear this case next week.

Shashi tharoor us visit: Congress MP Shashi Tharoor dismissed US President Donald Trump’s suggestion of finding a solution by talking between India and Pakistan. He said that the terrorist who spreads terror and believing in democracy cannot be equal, so it is not right to compromise between them. He said that terrorists and their victims cannot be considered the same.

Congress leader Shashi Tharoor said that when there is no equality between the two parties, there is no scope for arbitration. He clarified that it is not possible to weigh those who spread terrorism and people suffering from it in the same scales. He gave this statement in response to US President Donald Trump’s claim, in which Trump said that he has played an important role in reducing the increasing tension between India and Pakistan.

Shashi Tharoor said this big thing about Pakistan

Shashi Tharoor is currently on a visit to America with a delegation of ‘Operation Sindoor’. On Thursday, he spoke during the ‘Council on Foreign Relations’ and said, “Media is a word that India does not accept.” He explained that such words create an illusion of equality between the two sides, whereas in reality there is no such similarity. Tharoor clearly said that those who spread terrorism and their victims cannot be kept at the same level.

The Congress MP said that a country that shelters terrorists cannot be compared to the country which is democratic and is in peace in its work. He also said that the country that wants peace and simply expects its neighbors to live peacefully, it cannot be compared to the country that wants to change the map of the world. In such a situation, when the two sides are so different, it is not possible to talk about some kind of mediation between them.

What did Donald Trump say on India-Pakistan ceasefire?

US President Donald Trump says that on May 10, he held a conversation between India and Pakistan, causing the two countries to stop the fight immediately. Trump has said many times that he ended tension between the two countries. He also said that if India and Pakistan stop fighting, then America will do business with them.
