Radhakrishnan vs Reddy: MPs set to elect India's next Vice President today

Business Standard

|

September 09, 2025

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led National Democratic Alliance's (NDA) candidate C P Radhakrishnan seems to have a clear edge over Opposition's nominee B Sudershan Reddy in the vice-presidential election on Tuesday, even as both the sides are trying to woo voters from across parties.

- BS REPORTER

On Sunday, Reddy urged members of Parliament (MPs) not to let party loyalty guide their choice. The NDA strategists have also reached out to political parties that are currently fence-sitters. This election will take place under a secret ballot system, and MPs are not bound by party whips to vote.

The electoral college for the vice-presidential election comprises a total of 788 members - 245 from the Rajya Sabha and 543 from the Lok Sabha. The 12 nominated members of the Rajya Sabha are also eligible to vote in the election.
