Staying true to his love for acronyms, Vice President elect M Venkaiah Naidu on Sunday said that India stands for 'Integrated National Development Impacting All Indians'.
"India stands for: Integrated National Development Impacting All Indians, equally well. This is the mission for India," he said after being felicitated here for winning the vice-presidential poll. Naidu had defeated the opposition's nominee Gopalkrishna Gandhi, the grandson of Mahatma Gandhi, by a wide margin in the August 5 election. The vice president elect said he has the highest respect for Karnataka, for it had given him an opportunity to serve the country as a Rajya Sabha member for three terms.
He also spoke about Indian democracy's might of making a person from a farmer's family as vice president. Naidu said he would be very keen to make the Rajya Sabha proceedings meaningful in his capacity as its chairman. He later left for Tirumala by a flight.
