This is Dhankhar’s first public statement since demitting office in July

Former Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar on Tuesday (September 9, 2025) extended greetings to his successor C.P. Radhakrishnan, saying that the office of the Vice-President will attain greater glory with his vast experience.

In a letter to Radhakrishnan, he said, “Your elevation to this august office reflects the trust and confidence by the representatives of our nation.”

He said that given Radhakrishnan’s vast experience in public life, under his stewardship, the office would “certainly attain greater veneration and glory”.

In a surprise move, Dhankhar had quit as the Vice-President on July 21, 2025  citing health issues. His sudden resignation led to the fresh vice presidential polls.
