The Congress party has slammed Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar over his remarks that people should leave their “political spectacle” behind while embarking on a foreign visit, saying the Rajya Sabha chairman should be impartial and not always praise the government.
Jairam Ramesh , Senior Congress leader , General Secretary in-charge Communications tweeted
पहले आप उनको यह सलाह दीजिए जिन्होंने इस प्रथा को 2015 में शुरू किया था। फिर प्रवचन दीजिए।
दूसरी बात, सभापति महोदय को निष्पक्ष होना चाहिए, हमेशा सरकार का गुणगान नहीं करना चाहिए। https://t.co/QSuj2pyEC8

Speaking at a World Homeopathy Day function as reported by PTI , Dhankhar on Monday said as India lays the foundation for the centenary of its independence in 2047, every attempt that seeks to attack the country’s dignity should be blunted.
He said people should leave their “political spectacle” behind while embarking on a foreign visit, in an apparent reference to a row over Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s remarks made during a recent visit to the United Kingdom.
