(File image)<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\"><span class=\"cf0\">Following his election as India\u2019s 15th Vice President on Tuesday, CP Radhakrishnan\u00a0wasted no time in framing his victory as a powerful ideological statement. In his first remarks to the media, the Vice President-elect asserted that the election had been a battle of ideologies and that the voting pattern demonstrated that \u201cnationalistic ideology is overall victorious&#8221;.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\"><span class=\"cf0\">Radhakrishnan\u2019s decisive win, with a final vote count of 452 against opposition\u00a0candidate B Sudershan\u00a0Reddy\u2019s 300, provides a clear numerical backing to his claim of a mandate. The victory margin of 152 votes in an electoral college of 767 MPs underscores the Bharatiya\u00a0Janata Party-led National Democratic Alliance\u2019s (NDA) strong parliamentary position. This was in contrast to the opposition\u2019s INDIA bloc, which, despite framing the contest as an \u201cideological battle,&#8221; fell short of its expected vote count.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\"><span class=\"cf0\">The victory also marks a significant milestone in Radhakrishnan\u2019s long political career, which is deeply rooted in the Rashtriya\u00a0Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and the BJP. A two-time Member of Parliament from Coimbatore and a former state president of the BJP in Tamil Nadu, he has consistently championed a nationalist agenda. Before his election, he served as the governor of Maharashtra and Jharkhand. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\"><span class=\"cf0\">His victory is being seen by the ruling side as a confirmation of its growing ideological and political dominance, as it secures the country\u2019s second-highest constitutional office. In his comments, he also emphasised the need to move beyond politics and focus on development to achieve the goal of a \u201cViksit\u00a0Bharat&#8221; by 2047.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"authorimg\" src=\"data:image\/jpeg;base64,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\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/news-desk-17918.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">News Desk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The News Desk is a team of passionate editors and writers who break and analyse the most important events unfolding in India and abroad.
