In the election for the post of Vice President, it is now scheduled to contest between the candidates of the government and the opposition. After the government nominated CP Radhakrishnan as a candidate, the Inui block has also declared the Supreme Court retired judge Sudarshan Reddy as its candidate. This time both the candidates for the post of Vice President come from the same province Tamil Nadu. Congress and opposing parties felt that if NDA candidate CP Radhakrishnan becomes the new Vice President of the country, then through the Bharatiya Janata Party Radhakrishnan, he would try to strengthen its political ground in South especially Tamil Nadu because when the BJP made former Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar its candidate, then the BJP had gained political benefit in Rajasthan and it was returned to power. Now the BJP has given this message to the people and workers of Tamil Nadu by making CP Radhakrishnan its candidate.
Who is CP Radhakrishnan- According to the current arithmetic of both houses of Parliament, NDA candidate CP Radhakrishnan is sure to win. Maharashtra Governor CP Radhakrishnan has been the Tamil Nadu BJP state president and has also been a Lok Sabha member from Coimbatore twice. CP Radhakrishnan joined the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh in 1974 at the age of 16 and engaged in social work and later his political life began. CP Radhakrishnan was also the Governor of Jharkhand for some time, he is the governor of visiting all the districts of Jharkhand state. CP Radhakrishnan has also taken over the additional charge of Telangana Governor and Lieutenant Governor of Pudduchary. CP Radhakrishnan was active in Tamil Nadu politics for 40 years, whose reward is now going to meet him as Vice President.

He was appointed as Secretary of BJP Tamil Nadu in 1996. In 2004, the United Nations gave a speech as part of the parliamentary delegation and joined Taiwan’s first parliamentary visit. He was also in charge of Kerala BJP from 2020 to 2022. CP Radhakrishnan is a very experienced and ground worker who is receiving such a huge responsibility.
CP Radhakrishnan took out a 19,000 km long rath yatra in 93 days in 93 days in 93 days to connect all Indian rivers, eradicate terrorism, implement uniform civil code, end untouchability and deal with the danger of the manner, as Tamil Nadu BJP President. It is believed that this time the BJP has given priority to the leader of the ideological background, which can benefit it in the upcoming politics of the south.
From the point of view of electoral politics, BJP can also get the benefit of CP Radhakrishnan being from OBC society in the elections of South states. The BJP will now also try to create an atmosphere against the Congress and the opposition that the opposition tried to stop the candidate of OBC society from becoming Vice President, although the BJP candidate is sure to win as the Vice President needs 392 votes to win the election while NDA has 422 votes.
While selecting the candidate for the post of Vice President, the dual mentality of the Congress and the opposition has been exposed as the government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi sent a judge who gave the verdict of Ramjanmabhoomi temple to the Rajya Sabha and made one Governor, then the opposition had opposed the appointments of retired judges and now herself is making a retired judge.
