Sanjay Raut Seeks Amit Shah's Help on Jagdeep Dhankhar's Whereabouts

New Delhi, Aug 11 (PTI) Shiv Sena-UBT leader Sanjay Raut has reached out to Union Home Minister Amit Shah, inquiring about the whereabouts of former Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar. Attempts to contact him have reportedly been unsuccessful. Dhankhar stepped down as vice president on July 21, coinciding with the start of the Monsoon session of Parliament, a move that surprised many. Raut expressed concerns over the lack of information regarding Dhankhar's location and health, as well as unsuccessful contact attempts made by some Rajya Sabha members. On Monday, the Shiv Sena-UBT leader shared the contents of his letter to Shah on X, raising alarms over rumors that Dhankhar may be confined to his residence and is purportedly not safe. He emphasized the absence of communication with Dhankhar or his staff, which he described as a matter of serious concern. Raut demanded clarity on the situation, questioning Dhankhar's whereabouts, health, and safety, insisting that the nation deserves answers. Last week, Uddhav Thackeray, chief of Shiv Sena-UBT, also expressed concerns, questioning Dhankhar's current situation during a press conference on Thursday. Raut, serving as a member of the Rajya Sabha, mentioned that some colleagues are contemplating filing a Habeas Corpus writ petition in the Supreme Court, expressing genuine worry over Dhankhar's status. He emphasized the decision to consult Shah before approaching the Supreme Court, expressing hope for genuine information on Dhankhar’s current status regarding his safety and health.
