Why did the Congress leader advise Radhakrishnan to meet Dhankhar before becoming Vice President:

News India Live, Digital Desk: After the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) declared Maharashtra Governor CP Radhakrishnan as the Vice Presidential candidate, a Congress leader of Jharkhand has advised him to meet Jagdeep Dhankar once before accepting nomination. The NDA has made CP Radhakrishnan its candidate on Sunday, who will replace Jagdeep Dhankhar. Dhankhar resigned from his post on the first day of the monsoon session citing health reasons.

Radhakrishnan was appointed as the Governor of Jharkhand in 2023 and then to Maharashtra in July 2024. The Congress leader advised that Radhakrishnan should “evaluate” the tenure as the Governor and Vice President of Dhankhar. He also gave the example of Satyapal Malik, who did a good job as a governor, as long as he kept walking on a line “but” as soon as he straightened his spine, he got trouble “.

Experts believe that Radhakrishnan’s selection gives many messages to the NDA. Their identity is related to OBC Social Engineering and BJP’s expansion schemes in South India, they are considered to be aggressive for the Rajya Sabha, the upper house of Parliament, which may be more effective than Dhankhar.
