Naidu seems to be in a comfortable position as the NDA has a clear majority in the Lok Sabha

New Delhi: The stage is set for the vice presidential election on Saturday, with numbers in favour of ruling NDA candidate M. Venkaiah Naidu who is most likely to become the second person with RSS background to occupy the second most important constitutional post.

Newdelhi:4/8/17:Naidu is pitted against opposition candidate Gopalkrishna Gandhi in the election that will take place in Parliament House with the electoral college comprising 790 members of both the houses.

The ruling combine made last minute arrangements to muster maximum support, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi giving a pep talk to MPs, including those from parties outside the NDA, at a dinner hosted by him.

In an effective electoral college of 787 members, Naidu seems to be in a comfortable position as the NDA has a clear majority in the Lok Sabha and has support of some political parties from the south.
