Speaking at the launch of Uttar Pradesh Governor Anandiben Patel's autobiography titled 'Chunautiyan Mujhe Pasand Hai’ in Lucknow, the Vice&President said that these roles uphold and safeguard the Constitution and that commenting on such dignified offices warrants serious reflection.

He said that all institutions must fulfil their responsibilities sincerely and called for better harmony among the legislature, executive and judiciary. "We must respect our constitutional institutions. Each of us have our own limits and our Constitution expects coordination among us,” he said.

Sharing his own experience, he said, "I deeply respect the judiciary. I have worked in this field for 40 years. Our judges are among the best, but I appeal that we must work together with cooperation and coordination."

Dhankhar praised Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath calling him a ‘young CM' and the ‘hero of Uttar Pradesh’. He said that when people older than Yogi call themselves young, it clearly shows how young and energetic Yogi is.
