Jagdeep Dhankhar attends Bhasma Aarti
On February 28, 2026, Jagdeep Dhankhar attended the Bhasma Aarti at the revered Shri Mahakaleshwar Temple in Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh. This event marked a significant moment as Dhankhar, who resigned from his position as Vice President in July 2025, continues to engage with the public on matters of national importance.
During the ceremony, Dhankhar prayed for the nation’s progress and prosperity, emphasizing the need for unity among citizens. He urged people to rise above ego, hatred, revenge, and jealousy, stating, “May we rise above ego, hatred, revenge, and jealousy, and become healthy and happy in life.”
His remarks reflect a broader call for harmony in a time of political and social challenges. Dhankhar expressed gratitude for the immense sacrifices made by farmers and army personnel, highlighting their contributions to the country. He remarked, “The sacrifice of our farmers and Army personnel towards our country is immense, and we will always remain grateful to them.”
Dhankhar’s attendance at this sacred site, one of the twelve Jyotirlingas in India, underscores his ongoing connection to spiritual and cultural traditions in the country. His previous role as the Governor of West Bengal before becoming Vice President in 2022 adds a layer of historical significance to his current engagements.
In a related context, C V Ananda Bose’s resignation as West Bengal Governor has evoked memories of Dhankhar’s own resignation, which was accepted by President Droupadi Murmu the day after it was submitted. This transition in leadership has stirred discussions about governance in the state.
As the political landscape evolves, with the current West Bengal assembly’s tenure set to end on May 7, further developments are anticipated. The implications of these changes on state and national politics remain to be seen.
Details remain unconfirmed regarding the future roles of Dhankhar and Bose in the political arena, as both figures have played significant roles in recent governance discussions.
