JAIPUR: Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar on Monday voiced concern over the state of Indian democracy, stating that the current political atmosphere is detrimental to the nation's democratic and social fabric.
In what is being seen as a sharp rebuttal to former Rajasthan CM Ashok Gehlot's recent remarks, Dhankhar asserted that he neither comes under pressure nor exerts pressure on others.
Gehlot had claimed in Jodhpur that key constitutional authorities, including the Vice President, are functioning under political pressure and accused the BJP of not believing in democracy.
