NDA MPs likely to go for a consensus candidate at Tuesday meeting

- RAJESH KUMAR THAKUR @ New Delhi

WITH only weeks left for the Vice-President election on September 9, the ruling National Democratic Alliance (NDA) has organised a major brainstorming session -- potentially the final discussion regarding their pick -- on Tuesday morning at the Parliament premises.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, designated by the NDA to have the final say on the candidate, is expected to address the MPs from both Houses -- the Rajya Sabha and the Lok Sabha. The nomination process for the Vice-President will close on August 21.

The BJP-nominated NDA's consensus candidate is expected to file their nomination on August 21, accompanied by a majority of senior NDA leaders, including PM Modi and Chief Ministers of NDA ally-ruled states like Bihar and Andhra Pradesh and others.
