Sansad Watch: The Dhankhar mystery and monsoon session chaos so far
Welcome back to Sansad Watch – your deep dive into what goes on inside India’s Parliament.
This week, the monsoon session opened with drama. On the very first day, Vice-President and Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar abruptly resigned, citing “health reasons” – but was that the reason?

In this episode of Sansad Watch, we break down the chaos.
