New Delhi
A meeting of NDA party leaders was held on Thursday for the Vice President’s election. In this meeting of the parliamentary party, PM Modi and Union Minister JP Nadda have been authorized to decide the candidate. Union Minorities and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju shared this information after the meeting. The post is vacant since former Vice Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar’s sudden resignation. The Election Commission had recently issued a notification and fixed the date for the election for this post. Nominations have started for this and voting and counting will be done on 9 September.
NDA will unanimously support PM’s decision
Talking to the media after the meeting, the Minority Minister said that, a resolution in the meeting was passed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the House leader JP Nadda in the Rajya Sabha to advance the process of Vice Presidential election and finalize the name of the candidate. The NDA will unanimously support any decision taken under the leadership of PM.
This is said about Rahul Gandhi
Meanwhile, Rijiju reacted to Rahul Gandhi’s allegation on the Election Commission and said, “Many times special intensive revision of the voter list has been done.” Rahul Gandhi lost the election in Maharashtra, so he wants to tarnish the image of the Election Commission. He first tried to tarnish the image of the Supreme Court on Wednesday and questioned the Supreme Court that he cannot decide who is Indian. After this, today he is trying to tarnish the image of the Election Commission. If you are attacking the Election Commission or the Supreme Court, then directly attacking democracy.
