Amid growing speculation over former Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar's resignation, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday said Mr Dhankhar resigned due to health issues and dismissed the opposition's claims that he was under "house arrest".

In an interview with ANI, the Union Home Minister said, "Dhankhar sahab's resignation letter is clear in itself. He has cited health reasons for his resignation. He has also expressed heartfelt gratitude towards the Prime Minister and other ministers and government members for his good tenure."
