Rajya Sabha deputy chairperson election today

After the no-confidence motion, which was defeated by the NDA government, the election to the post of deputy chairperson in the Rajya Sabha on Thursday has become the latest platform to showcase Opposition unity. The Opposition parties, led by the Congress, will look to retain the post after having burnt its fingers during the election to the Vice President when JD(U) pulled out of the Opposition camp to side with the NDA.
