BJP's big move! NDA nominates Bengal Governor Jagdeep Dhankar for Vice Presidentship

New Delhi, Jul 18: The National Democratic Alliance (NDA) has recently announced West Bengal Governor Jagdeep Dhankhar as their final candidate for the position of Vice President of the country. The decision comes when the Governor is being forbidden from executing his powers and duties, hypocritically, by West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee.

 

 

 

 

On the same lines, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Chief JP Nadda on Sunday (Jul 17) urged all the political parties, especially UPA allies to support National Democratic Alliance's (NDA) Vice Presidential candidate Jagdeep Dhankhar. Nadda said, "Under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, we are all walking with the mantra of Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas and it has been our endeavour to include the poor, deprived, exploited Dalit, tribals who are standing at the last rung in the society to the mainstream and strengthen them. Keeping this in mind, we have selected a tribal woman as the presidential candidate."

 

 

 

 

 

Calling Bengal Governor Dhankar a 'Kisan Putra', Nadda said the NDA Vice Presidential candidate is a person from a humble background, who also served the country in different capacities for three decades. Nadda said, "Now we have a farmer's son, a person who has come out of a simple family and facing socio-economic difficulties, a farmer son has advanced himself as a professional, as the first generation and as an able administrator and even as a capable politician."

 

He urged the allies of the UPA to come together and cooperate in making a farmer's son the Vice President. O Sunday (Jul 17), Odisha's ruling party Biju Janta Dal (BJD) announced its support for NDA's Vice Presidential candidate Jagdeep Dhankar in the upcoming election. As per official sources, "The decision has been taken after Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a discussion with BJD president and Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik and sought his support for Dhankar."
