PM Narendra Modi to Address Crucial NDA Meeting Ahead of V-P Polls and Amid Parliament Logjam Today

NEW DELHI, AUG 4 – PM Modi will discuss vice president election strategy, ongoing Opposition protests, and recent counter-terror operation success at the NDA parliamentary meeting, with 782 electoral college members involved.

  • On August 5, 2025, Prime Minister Narendra Modi spoke at a gathering of MPs from the BJP and its allied parties in Delhi, marking the first such meeting in some time.
  • Following the 2024 Lok Sabha polls, although the BJP did not achieve an outright majority on its own, it secured a governing majority through its alliance partners, leading to an expanded parliamentary party that now includes the TDP, JD, and LJP.
  • The NDA meeting came days before the vice president's election nomination filing began on August 7, with the candidate announcement deadline on August 21.
  • The vice presidential electoral college has 782 MPs from Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha, and the NDA candidate is expected to win due to its majority; the poll is scheduled for September 9 if Opposition fields a candidate.
  • The Monsoon Session of Parliament has been largely ineffective due to Opposition protests over the Special Intensive Revision of Bihar's electoral rolls and issues including the Pahalgam terror attack, while Modi is likely to be felicitated for the military response.
