Rajya Sabha Chairman Calls Meeting With House Leaders on Cash Recovery Issue

New Delhi : Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar has called a crucial meeting with Leader of the House JP Nadda and Leader of Opposition Mallikarjun Kharge today to discuss the issue of cash recovery from the residence of a Delhi High Court judge. The issue, which has sparked intense debate in political and legal circles, was raised by Congress leader Jairam Ramesh in the Rajya Sabha last week. Taking cognizance of the matter, Chairman Dhankhar has decided to engage in discussions with top parliamentary leaders to address the concerns surrounding the incident.

The controversy erupted after a large sum of cash was reportedly recovered from the residence of a sitting judge of the Delhi High Court. The recovery has raised serious questions about judicial integrity and possible links to corruption. Opposition leaders, including Congress’s Jairam Ramesh, have demanded a thorough probe into the matter, calling it a significant issue that affects the credibility of the judiciary and governance in India.

Following the revelation, opposition parties have been vocal in their demand for accountability, urging the government to conduct a transparent investigation. Jairam Ramesh raised the matter in the Rajya Sabha last week, emphasizing the need for immediate action and judicial reforms. In response, the ruling BJP has maintained that the government will allow the due process of law to take its course and has assured that the matter will not be influenced by political considerations.

Amidst the growing debate, Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar‘s decision to hold discussions with JP Nadda and Mallikarjun Kharge is seen as an attempt to navigate the political tensions and ensure that appropriate parliamentary action is taken. Sources suggest that the meeting will focus on the legal and ethical implications of the case, as well as possible steps to prevent such incidents in the future.

The meeting is expected to set the tone for further discussions in Parliament regarding judicial accountability and transparency.
