Naqvi to become Vice President

New Delhi, 7/7:A day before their Rajya Sabha terms were coming to an end, Union Minister for Minority Affairs and BJP leader Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi and Union Steel Minister and JD(U) leader Ram Chandra Prasad Singh tendered their resignations to the prime minister.

While there is no official word, there is speculation that Naqvi could be either the vice-presidential candidate from the National Democratic Alliance, or sent to Jammu and Kashmir as the LG.

 

Naqvi and Singh were not renominated by their respective parties, and were given a send-off during the Cabinet meeting on Wednesday. Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised them for their performance, and expressed his gratitude for their contribution.
