For Veep Battle, Revanth Reddy's Challenge To Andhra, Telangana Parties
The NDA move to pick a Tamil leader as its Vice-Presidential candidate -- in another effort to play the Tamil card -- appears to have led its southern allies into a dilemma as the Opposition INDIA bloc came up with an equally strong response.
The NDA has picked CP Radhakrishnan, one of BJP's party's tallest leaders from Tamil Nadu, to wrong-foot the state's ruling DMK in the coming state elections. The choice before the DMK was tricky - go for a Tamil candidate or against him and support the INDIA Bloc pick.
