The New Indian Express Coimbatore
|August 20, 2025
PRIME Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday appealed to all parties, including the Opposition, to unanimously elect the NDA's candidate, C P Radhakrishnan, as the next Vice President.
After felicitating the NDA nominee at the NDA Parliamentary Party meeting, he highlighted the public life of Radhakrishnan from his early days in the RSS to holding a gubernatorial post.
Introducing him to the MPs, Modi highlighted their long-standing relationship, saying, "We have been friends for more than 40 years and have been friends since the time our hair was black."
He described Radhakrishnan as a simple, down-to-earth individual. The PM, in a lighter vein, remarked, "He is a simple and easy-going person and won't play politics".
