Jagdeep Dhankhar is a prominent Indian politician, legal expert, and current 14th Vice President of India, supported by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Born in a humble Jat farming family in Rajasthan's Jhunjhunu district, he began his journey as a lawyer and soon transitioned into active politics. His political career spans over three decades, from serving as an MP in the Lok Sabha to being a minister in the Chandra Shekhar government and later becoming the Governor of West Bengal.

In August 2022, he secured a historic win as the NDA’s candidate in the Vice Presidential election with over 74% of votes. He is widely respected for his firm approach, legal acumen, and sharp oratory. His journey is symbolic of India’s democratic potential — from grassroots to constitutional leadership. Jagdeep Dhankhar continues to play a significant role in shaping parliamentary proceedings as the Chairman of the Rajya Sabha, representing the BJP’s outreach to the Jat and OBC communities across north India.
