Can't settle scores in a constitutional post: VP
Hindustan Times Uttarakhand|December 25, 2024
People holding constitutional posts have to be "vindicated by commitment to sublimity, sterling qualities, and constitutionalism" and are "not in the position to settle scores", vice president Jagdeep Dhankhar said on Tuesday.

NEW DELHI:

The statement came in the backdrop of the Opposition moving a notice on December 10 for a motion of no-confidence against the vice president, who is also the chairman of the Rajya Sabha, during the recent winter session of Parliament. The notice was rejected by the deputy chairman of the Upper House, Harivansh, on several grounds, including technical flaws on December 19. Harivansh described the move as "casual" and "cavalier", and noted that it even misspelt Dhankhar's name.

In an interaction with women journalists at his official residence on Tuesday, Dhankhar made a reference to the notice and said that anyone who would have read the contents would not have slept for days.
