Jagdeep Dhankhar Resigns: जगदीप धनखड़ के इस्तीफे पर विपक्ष ने उठ

Jagdeep Dhankhar Resigns: उपराष्ट्रपति पद से इस्तीफा देने के बाद जगदीप धनखड़ का यह कहना कि वो विदाई भाषण भी नहीं देंगे, जिसने अटकलों का बाजार गर्म कर रहा है. जगदीप धनखड़ के इस्तीफे पर अखिलेश यादव समेत विपक्ष ने कई तरह के सवाल उठाये हैं...जिनमें एक बात कॉमन है कि विपक्ष को भी ये बात हजम नहीं हो रही है कि हेल्थ रीजन की वजह से ही पूर्व उपराष्ट्रपति जगदीप धनखड़ ने इस्तीफा दिया है...क्योंकि जिस तरीके से उनका इस्तीफा हुआ है...ये नजर आने लगा है कि कहीं न कहीं सब कुछ राजी खुशी नहीं हुआ है. विपक्ष के साथ राजनीतिक विश्वेषक और वरिष्ठ पत्रकार भी तमाम तरह की अटकलें लगा रहे हैं. ((After resigning from the post of Vice President, Jagdeep Dhankhar's statement that he will not even give a farewell speech has heated up the market of speculations. The opposition, including Akhilesh Yadav, has raised many questions on Jagdeep Dhankhar's resignation...one thing common among them is that the opposition is also not able to digest the fact that former Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar has resigned due to health reasons...because the way he has resigned...it is beginning to appear that somewhere everything is not okay. Along with the opposition, political analysts and senior journalists are also making all kinds of speculations.)) #JagdeepDhankhar #AkhileshYadav #JagdeepDhankharResigns #VicePresidentResigns #BreakingNews #PMModi #JagdeepDhankharResignation #PresidentOfIndia #PoliticalNews #PoliticsToday Also Read Vice President Dhankhar Resigns: Absence of Key Ministers at BAC Meeting Sparks Political Storm :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/vice-president-dhankhar-resigns-absence-of-key-ministers-at-bac-meeting-sparks-political-storm-7807399.html?ref=DMDesc Who Will Be The Next Vice President of India After Jagdeep Dhankhar's Resignation? :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/who-will-be-the-next-vice-president-after-jagdeep-dhankhars-resignation-7807293.html?ref=DMDesc Akhilesh Yadav Meets Family of Astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla Following Historic ISS Mission :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/akhilesh-yadav-meets-astronaut-shubhanshu-shuklas-family-lucknow-011-7786813.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.87~HT.408~ED.108~GR.125~

Pragya Thakur, 6 Others Walk Free in Malegaon Blast Case—After Shah's ‘No Hindu...Terrorist' Remark

Seventeen years after the deadly 2008 Malegaon blast rocked Maharashtra, a special NIA court in Mumbai has acquitted all seven accused — including BJP MP Pragya Singh Thakur and Lt Col Prasad Purohit — citing lack of concrete evidence. The judgment came just one day after Union Home Minister Amit Shah told the Rajya Sabha that "no Hindu can ever be a terrorist." The court emphasized that terrorism has no religion and that justice cannot be based on public perception or moral bias. This landmark verdict reignites debates on communal narratives, judicial process, and political influence in terror trials. #MalegaonBlast #PragyaThakur #AmitShah #HinduTerror #CourtVerdict #BreakingNews #IndiaPolitics #NIA #JudicialSystem #TerrorismDebate #CommunalPolitics #JusticeInIndia Also Read 2008 Malegaon Blast: Here Is The Timeline of The Case :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/2008-malegaon-blast-here-is-the-timeline-of-the-case-7816633.html?ref=DMDesc Pragya Thakur Makes Bhopal Girl Watch ‘The Kerala Story’, She Elopes With Muslim Days Later :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/pragya-thakur-makes-bhopal-girl-watch-the-kerala-story-she-elopes-with-muslim-days-later-3570005.html?ref=DMDesc BJP MP Pragya Thakur booked in Karnataka over 'keep your knives sharp' remark :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/bjp-mp-pragya-thakur-booked-in-karnataka-over-keep-your-knives-sharp-remark-3505152.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.178~PR.274~GR.125~ED.346~

Adani’s 'Seva Hi Saadhna Hai' Pledge: From MahaKumbh’s 4 Million Meals to Puri’s Rath Yatra

In a land where devotion flows not just through rituals, but through service, the Adani Group has embraced a powerful truth: Seva is not just an act — it is Saadhna. Rooted in this philosophy, the ‘Seva Hi Saadhna Hai’ pledge is Adani’s sacred commitment to serving with humility, scale, and soul. What began as a monumental effort at the MahaKumbh — where over 4 million sanctified meals were lovingly prepared and distributed to pilgrims — continues now at one of India’s most divine festivals: the Puri Rath Yatra. As the majestic chariots of Lord Jagannath roll through the ancient city, Adani’s unbroken chain of seva ensures that every devotee is nourished, every offering is honored, and every step of faith is met with a gesture of care. From massive community kitchens to meticulously organized Prasad Seva, Adani’s service is seamless, silent, and spiritually aligned with the heart of the Yatra. #JagannathPuriRathYatra #JagannathRathYatra2025 #PuriRathYatra #RathYatra2025 #JagannathYatra #JagannathPuri #RathYatraLive #RathYatraAdaniNews #JagannathRathYatraStory #JagannathRathYatraLatestNews #SevaHiSaadhnaHai #AdaniSeva #PuriRathYatra2025 #JagannathRathYatra ~PR.152~HT.408~GR.124~
