The opposition parties in India have moved a notice for the removal of Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar, alleging his partisan behavior. This decision was influenced by several instances where opposition members felt unfairly treated, including the suspension of Congress MP Rajani Patil for the remainder of the Budget Session and the refusal to allow a discussion on the Adani issue. The opposition, led by figures like Mallikarjun Kharge, has accused Dhankhar of not maintaining the dignity of his office and showing bias towards the ruling party.

This move comes amidst ongoing tensions between the opposition and the ruling party, highlighting the deep political divide.
