Speaker of the Lok Sabha Om Birla met Vice President and Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankar on Wednesday. During their meeting, Birla expressed his profound worries and distress regarding grave misconduct by Members of Parliament in the Parliament complex, which denigrated and denigrated the constitutional office of Vice President. “Expressed my sincere worries and distress to @VPIndia and the Honorable Chairman of the Rajyasabha regarding the grave misconduct of Honorable MPs in the Parliament complex that denigrates and denigrates the constitutional office of Vice President.” The decision made by one MP to use video graphing to magnify this ignoble act is shocking. The speaker of the Lok Sabha wrote on X, “This is a new low and no one believing in democracy will ever appreciate it.”
Banerjee had mimicked Vice President Dhankhar during the opposition’s protest on the stairs of Parliament on Tuesday against the suspension of MPs, drawing strong condemnation from the ruling BJP.
Leaders of the Jat Community also held a protest in support of Vice President Dhankar in the national capital.
A leader belonging to the Jat community, Chaudhary Surendar Solanki told ANI, “We have called a meeting for our leaders. We’ll decide that either the suspended TMC MP Kalyan Banerjee should apologize to the Vice President as soon as possible or else we’ll call upon a village council to protest against him”.
Meanwhile, expressing concern over the mimicry incident of Jagdeep Dhankar, President Droupadi Murmu on Wednesday said that she was “dismayed to see the manner in which the respected Vice President was humiliated”.
